I really appreciate all the positive feedbacks, especially since I'm pretty new to this forum. Thanks.

Since I love McCarthy's work, it appeared logical to frame some of his prints for Christmas as a gift to my boyfriend and myself. The Fall was my first pick... Surprisingly, decisions regarding the frame and mat options were pretty hard to make. I posted some pics of the final result on the comment thread a few days ago. I'm pretty happy with the result. Just for fun, I had also taken The Rain Had a Sound to the frame shop... It turned out that in about 3 minutes, I knew exactly how I wanted it to be framed... I couldn't resist the temptation...

I'm shocked a "lost" poster didn't win.

This was my pick for Print of the Year. Glad to see that it won. Still bummed I didn't pick one up when I had the chance.

^Good luck on your hunt^
But like I said more and more of these are going to get framed and disappear I think.
Do love this print though it kills in person too.

:shock: 4 art prints in the top 15 were Dan's. Very impressive! :notworthy:

However, I'm surprised his Andrew Bird poster didn't prove more popular. Not much of a poster collector myself, but thought that one was a stunner!
