Framing in the works

My. Look what a custom frame can do : ) My good friends at the Framing and Art Center in St. Catharines are displaying some of my art for the next month or so. I left the framing up to them and I was *wowed* (yes, it deserves asterisks) when I saw them today. Here they are laying on a work table, but as soon as the display gets hung I will snap a better picture. I must say, they chose gorgeous frames that compliment each painting beautifully. I have saved the image a little larger than usual so that you can enlarge it to get a better view.

These paintings look fabulous! It is interesting to see what frame was selected to match each painting. They really did a great job.

Yes, they did do a great job with finding the best frame for each painting. Your paintings look great all framed and ready to be hung.

Everybody has said it already, but that was my first thought as well - that a lot of consideration has gone into choosing the best frame for each one - they look fabulous, Kim. :)

These look awesome! (Of course, the great paintings help the frames a lot!!)

Hi Kim,

They look fantastic and the framers did a wonderful job of choosing a frame for each individual piece. They really took the subject into account. I can see why you are thrilled.
