Annoying Gap... Help Required to fill it!!, by Graham H on May 23, 2013 15:08:22 GMT 1, Afternoon all..
Finished putting a mosaic of pics on my wall.. and as much as i tried and tried - laying what I'd got out on the floor in many different ways, layouts, I have ended up with a damn annoying gap in the square of pics.. Everything is lined up square, symetrical and perfect... except..
I have currently filled it with a couple of Sinclairs I have in a frame.. but It ruins the whole effect..and looks rediculous!!.. and am hoping that some one on here can come up with a suggestion of what to fill it with ( keep them clean please!!).. I have wracked my brains but just cant find anything..
The gap size to fill is 70cm wide by 25cm tall.. this could be one, two or three prints framed.. I use black square box frames as you can see.. the size would include the frame..
Any suggestions / ideas welcome to keep in the theme of the project..its really doing my head in as it is and totally spoils what I set out to do..
Thanks in advance

what about the Tiny showcase release ,. Josh keyes , you could get maybe 3 in there? might just be 2 though.
or some of the brooklynite snubnose prints, set of soup cans?

Sorry.. didnt make myself clear.. was to replace the speccy totally.. the frame around it is to deep so ' sticks out' from the wall to far to match the other frames..
Thanks for the comments so far!!.. keep em coming
G
p.s. I have thought about 3 penny's in frames.. but a bit like rocking horse s***.. and at the height, fear the detail will get lost and not seen!!
Like these tho if anyone has any..

I had the speccy in the middle centred to start with.. but I wanted the 4 sides of the whole mosaic to be straight.. so it then annoyed me that there was a gap in the side of the whole mosaic if that makes sense..
Jeez.. why am I so anal!

Annoying Gap... Help Required to fill it!!, by Graham H on May 23, 2013 16:15:47 GMT 1, thought about getting a commission done? Better to have something by an artist you really want compared to trying to find something that "just works"
Cheers Afrika
Thought of that.. but wondered what else anyone else had in mind.. isnt a case of just making do.. more a hope that something I had never even thought of or seen pops up and just fits the bill..and is to my taste!!
All else fails, then plan B commision it will need to be!
Thanks again

How about 3 penny notes in one frame. Not a cheap solution, but i think the size should be about right.

How about framing up some special edition VNA mags you could probably fit 3 in a frame or do them separately.
