Decided I wanted to move to something simpler and less chaotic than my
Wall O' Peeps and decided to get a thing from
inkifi.com - a single largeish framed 4 x 13 grid of square cropped photos.
(and I'm labeling them here just for fun...)

I find it satisfying to (once again) plumb my photographic past and find photos meaningful to me, mostly because of who is in them but also with an eye towards the visually arresting. And this arrangement was interesting... I decided to build from the bottom up chronologically, with my parents anchoring the corners. Sometimes I used choice of photo or proximity (or lack thereof) to make a message or a joke. I used more photos that didn't show up in previous projects.
