Choose an art piece for this dickhead's office!!! WITH POLE!!

[MrSquished]

So I am changing the vibe of my office on the cheap. Besides some de-cluttering, re-arranging and a couple real small things - the primary way is to put a nice and large approx 4ft by 2ft canvas print to hang above my monitor and just give off a peaceful and chill natural vibe always in my line of sight, and one I can push the seat back and look at up and grin inside or contemplate, or just take me somewhere else in a neutral to positive sense.

I have narrowed it down to four options, and all are a japanese ink type print style.

Take yer pick for this dick!

Voted 2, 1 is second place, but neither are ideal to my eyes. I like the muted tones of the first two, but I think I'd like them turned down a bit more, and fewer birds.

Yeah none of these are perfect for me but I do agree on fewer birds for sure. That is a ding on that one.

I found some perfect ones but they were a vertical layout, or they were horizontal, but like 4' but only 16" tall, so more a panoramic style, but I didn't want something that narrow.

I want at least 20" tall, preferrably 24".

I like them all, but it depends on the overall brightness of your room, IMO. #2 is a bit too bright on my monitor, so I'd go with #1.

Out of all of those, I like this one the best:

It's his... penetrating gaze

I'd take 3 if it didn't have all the dumb writing all over it, so picked 1.

There all sorts of terrible but 2 is less cringe than the others

How's your fully stuffed backpack treating you?

I agree on the writing, wish it was gone.

The only thing I have against #2 is that it doesn't say "peaceful and chill" to me. That many birds flying at once makes me think something scary flushed them.

Otherwise it's the best of the bunch unless you really like fishing (#1).

Turns out the seller can remove the writing and stamps. Glad you said that because it prompted me to ask.

How's your fully stuffed backpack treating you?

Quite well, first I put a trash compactor bag in, then the 850 fill 20 degree down sleeping bag goes in without a stuff sack to fill out the bottom without lumps, then the BV500 goes on top. From there I stuff my extra clothing and gear around the sides. I then put my Marmot UL Tungsten tent/fly on top, and seal it up. Tent poles & MSR stakes fill up the stuff it sack on the left side with my Tyvek footprint. My 1.5L Smart Water goes on the right side pocket, my 24oz Smart water squeeze fits on my shoulder left strap for easy access. My InReach goes on the right strap.

Top pocket I keep my Platypus water filter, Leuko strips & chafe cream.

Really looking forward to the 52 mile loop I have planned out in the Southern Sierras later this summer. While not as epic as my 72 mile High Sierra & Mt. Whitney Portal trail I did last year - I think it will be another great hike and looking forward to Redwood Meadow.


Your welcome to steal this one from last years trail and print it out to hang above your desk...

 

[brianmanahan]

my vote is for #3. it's snowing on mt fuji

 

[Charmonium]

I picked 4. You want some fire with your ice.

I could also go with #3. I just like the balance of #4 better.

 

[Chaotic42]

Come on folks, we can do this - we can make it a 4 way tie.

I've been trying to figure out what the title meant by 'with pole.'

You might want to change that to "poll" to help those of us on the short bus.

lol I mispelled it on purpose. cheeky.

It's like one of the most common mispellings online so I've seen it used ironically like this.

I should have wrote 'now with MOARRRRR POLE!'

[nods] Sounds cromulent.

Number 4, only if the seller can remove that "Modern Art Gallery" letters from upper left corner.

 

[MrSquished]

Number three came back cleaned up

Why would he do that? Looks like an average photo of a trail. Pretty location though.

I found this other artist that has this cool style and the colors work great with the office accoutremants
