Just bought a piece of motorcycle art for the wall....

MarkPBG
Deus Ex Machina, the down under custom motorcycle builder, got a hold of some limited edition blueprint posters with the 1:1 scale Manx Norton engine blueprint....numbered and signed by Ron Holyoake, the original Norton Draughtsman! It wasn't cheap, but I think a good purchase. Thank you overtime!

Very,very,very cool! But it's a little too blue for my tastes. They should have use a more natural color...

Well, it IS a BLUEprint. LOL

My "den" which is getting turned into a shop/photo studio, is going to have lots of art on the walls, and a pop of color here and there will establish the room as a superior example of a bachelors man cave to the ladies. LOL

It won't, and it won't mess up my Feng Shui either. lol

As for the Feng Shui aspects of the color blue, This room is my photo studio and motorcycle workshop, so it's both a good color for career when on the South East side of the home, and a home office, and is supposed to bring in tranquility, peace, energy and happiness when used in the North, East and (mine) Southeast rooms. (it's the color of wealth and abundance when used here) :)
I also plan on putting up a 10 foot wide mural of a camera, with the inside of the lens having this curved shelf to display my old camera collection.....

I'm not going to pay over $1500 to buy this one from the U.K. though, It's easy enough to make myself.

No, it's just a blueprint poster, but I have over 100 frames in my studio, so framing it won't be a problem. :)
