Very interesting. I’d be happy to decorate my home with …well, most of those.

I got to design a frame job for a print of [“Booby Trap”](https://www.drseussart.com/secretandarchive/booby-trap). It was a bit of a leap of faith for the client, but I created a Cat in the Hat -esque red/white/red/white mat design that ended up looking spectacular.

I saw a few from this group come across our shop. Always fun to design for.
