Bootsy Holler - Wallpaper Exhibition

Blackbird is lucky to have a piece of loveliness adorning our South wall. Bootsy Holler, a local (Ballard) photographer, is now displaying her rose encrusted wallpaper. In my opinion, Bootsy is THE BEST photographer in Seattle and one of the BEST people ever. I also like her dog Pony.

For the piece, Bootsy took black and white photos of roses, enlarged and duplicated them and applied the roses to enormous patches of pink wallpaper. Since its creation, the wallpaper has adorned an entire room in an exhibition in Seattle and has been on display at another location. Next time you are in Blackbird shopping, take a moment to enjoy the roses (I almost said "stop to smell the..." but that was a lame idea).

Here's a sample of the piece but seeing it in person is much better.

Salesman, Kyle Crothers seen here modeling his favorite sweater, One True Saxon (a British line) 100% merino wool crew neck $220. What you can't see is the blue, red and white rugby stripes on the back hem. Too cool!
