Art for my Music Loving Boyfriend

<div style="text-align: center;">I don't think I've told you yet, but M. is an amazing musician - singer, songwriter, plays the piano. Really, could I be any luckier? I love listening to him play music. He's recording some new stuff right now, and I can't wait for the day I can share it with all of you! In the meantime, I noticed two spaces recently that featured art that I think my music loving boyfriend would like. I'm not talking music notes or treble clefs on the wall (no offense to anyone with large music notes on their wall...just not my thing), but really cool pieces. <br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj-yW5QFSC1jyhOTMc1XHDyvrbptbo6PK8K9E2e4enkM2HOOet-Npn193jdi0MK4of7rvBi79Dg8SE7rKDAadLBsqGaCCTN0eMb0m0gnuxbqswtgbPgwUc0tU0-gUXbpTyempy2-rGt-HQ/s1600/jonny-buckland-coldplay-home-1-xln.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj-yW5QFSC1jyhOTMc1XHDyvrbptbo6PK8K9E2e4enkM2HOOet-Npn193jdi0MK4of7rvBi79Dg8SE7rKDAadLBsqGaCCTN0eMb0m0gnuxbqswtgbPgwUc0tU0-gUXbpTyempy2-rGt-HQ/s1600/jonny-buckland-coldplay-home-1-xln.jpg" width="484" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.elledecor.com/celebrity-style/homes/jonny-buckland-coldplay-home-ny" target="_blank">Johnny Buckland's Home via Elle Decor</a></td></tr></tbody></table><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div>^This is the home of Johnny Buckland (the drummer for Coldplay) featured in this month's <span style="color: #ea9999;"><a href="http://www.elledecor.com/celebrity-style/homes/jonny-buckland-coldplay-home-ny#slide-1" target="_blank">Elle Decor</a></span>.

Chess Board Coffee Table
