Gum wall under table top.L1010746, with story

Description

On my gallery wall is a large 20" by 30" framed photo taken of the gum wall in the Pike Street Market, in Seattle, Washington, USA.  The wall is 15 feet tall by 50 feet long, full of chewing gum left by visitors. Whether it is popular, or it just cannot be removed is a whole other story.  Observers to my gallery react in interest and then often disgust as they realize what the mesmerizing colors are made up of.

No one has purchased it yet, but they clearly like or dislike, yet find it interesting and keep coming back to show their friends.  I think the notes in the gum make it even more fun. 

I had been trying to find a way to showcase the image, and I think I have found a good way to present it.

Imagine this under a living room glass table top.  I am going to try, having found a table to use it with. As the table is square, I redid the image to match, then gave it a wide black border which will go with a black matt, under the glass.  This also allows a switch of photos to another image, as I will design the mat to be replaced with another of the same size.

What do you think?

Feel free to download, just give me photo credit.
