Those of you following along might recall that Bryan selected Koshi's fetching B&W 1 as the starting point for the rest of the pieces. The Koshi ended up flying solo in the living room, as it was so striking (and large) that it really merited a place of its own.
I combined the rest of my selections, Escape, Aperture 4, and Autumn, with vintage pieces, works by the girlies and Bryan, and a photograph by my friend Sam's talented hubby Bret. To keep things cohesive amidst the different styles and mediums, I stuck to a palette of works in blues and greens and used light colored wood frames.
The finish product hangs over the dresser in our guest room, and I have to say, I'm really digging the way it turned out...
Now the fun (for you) begins... We're doing a little giveaway with Minted.com. Here's the low-down:

It looks great! I wish I could have you come over and work some of that magic on my walls. It's a talent for sure. I currently have an empty living room, so we're in the early stages of picking out furniture and decorations. I have no idea what I'm doing. :-)
Based on our colors, I'm thinking the print I'd choose would be Radiance (in that lovely orange and turquoise). Escape and Aperture 4 are both on the list as possibilities as well. Very cool!
Wow, what a Great Wall! Continually amazed at your eye for putting things together so perfectly.
I would love the cat's pajamas print to hang above our little girl's crib. http://www.minted.com/product/custom-art-prints/MIN-0I8-NCA/the-cats-pajamas
She just moved on up to the big girl crib last week and the wall is still bare and needs some love.
LOVE that grouping, you did such a great job. I'd pick the rooftops of paris although i really like the tributary on the coast as well. thanks for hosting such a great giveaway.
I'm loving the print by Jack Move, "A Long Week in the City" -- as a collector of ticket stubs and other ephemera, I especially love seeing it on the huge scale (60"x44")!
Oh, I just love the Dream Big print-- so sweet!
I would totally get the Rocket Art Print for my son's room!

I really dig the b&w 1 -- it looks like it is in that first photo you have. I'd put it in our office, we are currently redecorating.
One of my many favorites is the Little Clover print.
I would put it in the kitchen since that is where we spend most of our time together as a family :-)

Great job with the art wall. I love the instagallery prints, the Highway wildflowers art prints and the all in the details art prints...i could go on!
awesome giveaway. my house is slowing filling with minted goods, but none of the prints! i love all of them but it would be really great to create a 'big picture' from one of our recent engagement pictures. that would hang perfectly in our office and keep me company while burning the midnight oil. fingers crossed!
I absolutely love the 'this is home' print in a gigantic size 60"x44". It will look great on the blank wall in my kitchen. It's big enough to cover up all the holes that are currently there from my many (failed) attempts to create a photo wall.

I love the escape print!
All the prints are fantastic but I love the Quiver Art Print! And your wall is fantastic! Great job!
My favorite is the Awning Stripes in yellow - would look so good in my sunroom!
The home sweet home and muted bouquet art prints are fantastic!
I would love Rooftops of Paris on my walls! Such a great escape.
Wow..your wall looks great. Love "Downtown" in any size.
So generous...fingers crossed

I really like the very first one I saw the best -you are here
Highway Wildflowers! I would hang it in my little girls room--I think its a perfect example of a piece of art that could grow with a child.
Hard choice! Loving Twisted Horizon, for the sense of peace/calm the photo evokes.

I'd put the Muted Bouquet in my bedroom. Thanks for doing this!
I would put the Rooftops of Paris in my living room, right above my Eiffel Tower statue collection!
Love their huge selection. I would have to go with Muted bouquet. So fabulous
I love the Heaven print! "Good design goes straight to heaven & bad design goes everywhere" too funny!

I really like Nature's Confetti print.

I like runaway, escape, constellation, and aperture 4 a lot!
Love the Venn Diagram Family print! I would put in our blank empty white staircase that mocks me with it's emptiness every time I go upstairs!
I would put up the constellation art print. I love the grouping.

Your post about having good art in children's rooms resonated with me. Thanks for this Minted opportunity.
Drawn to the "Divided" print...

Thanks for sharing Minted.com! I hadn't heard of them before.
what an amazing wall of art! i would so pick "autumn" and place it beside my bed. i love to look at calming colors, as i fall asleep. x.
Escape would look lovely in our living room as we have various gray shades.
I love the radiance print in grey!
