So Wayne's wall is all done (and gloriously untagged) and Ronnie's peering out nightly over the Boulevard.

If walls could talk...

A tour of someone else's collection
Working in an art gallery, I have been lucky enough to have art readily available to enjoy as part of my everyday work life. Unfortunately, with the Gallery doors closed and the collection safety stored away, it's not the case for us at the moment. So it was time to view someone else's collection, and see how it enriches their working environment.
