So last night Trish and Tristan came up to my loft office and gave me a late birthday present: A beautifully framed piece of art from I-Am 8 -Bit. It's a pretty amazing piece of art, especially with the colour-matching frame. Can't wait until I figure out where to hang it.

@Elly: I agree with the bathroom idea.
But seriously, what a present it is! :D

Put it on the wall opposite the toilet. That should give you ample time to admire and contemplate it. Or you could hang it in Tristan's room and tell him Luigi is going to beat up the monsters for him.

Ha I was looking at the banner ad for Gawker Artits, trying to figure out what game it was. Now I see it, I think I would put somewhere Luigi couldn't look at me at bedtime.

I've never really liked the realistic Mario drawings that people do, but either way it is still a nice piece of art regardless.

@Elly:
If it's an original then I have to disagree profusely. Moisture damages these things like crazy, and keep it out of direct sunlight. Then again, if it's just a print, then put it wherever you like.

I think it's Mario with the Flower Power, not Luigi.
Now I have to prepare myself for a month without sleeping...

@chaman_shimano: It's Luigi with the flower actually. Mario would still have a red shirt inside the white overall instead of a green one.

Above your workstation is the only place to hang it.

I especially like the small splashes of blood on his shoes and pants. Do you know what is the name of this piece is, Crecente?
