Donald Baechler Print at your fingertips

You may not realize it, but at some point you’ve probably been lusting after a piece of art from this man:

 

 

His name is Donald Baechler and he is best known for his bold and graphic work that is on display at the Whitney,  MOMA, Guggenheim and of course how can we forget…. Rashida Jones apt in NYC.

 

Now I know Rashida Jones apt doesn’t really go with the grouping of museums I mentioned above, but the piece of art featured in her studio apt was what got Donald on my mind.

 

 

While his work at times get mistaken for Hugo Guinness's linoleum cut prints his work is an actual painting done with a screen-printing technique.

 

His work also got great attention when it made the cover of Elle Decor in the home of Aerin Lauder.

 

We also saw a peek of it in Monique Lhuillier’s home.

Over the weekend I was cleaning up my magazine stacks. I had three giant stacks next to my nightstand and while I tried to pretend that they looked chic and inventive I knew it just looked messy.

 

Cleaning up was good, because it led me to find this image:

Doesn’t the middle print remind you of Rashida’s print?

 

It did to me and since this image actually came from DIY Ideas a special publication by Better Homes & Gardens instead of Elle Decor you know you can afford it.

I’m all set to print out my own copy and add it to one of my gallery walls.

 

Now I know it’s not the real deal. If you want the real deal it’s available here, but for a little bit of printer ink, a piece of paper and an inexpensive frame you can have the look for pennies.
