These two fantasy illustrations are part of a series. We wanted to a achieve nice balance between modern and whimsical. The silver frame from Roma Moulding has a softly brushed metallic finish that gives the presentation a contemporary feel, while the wide aqua mat is an excellent choice because it pulls subtle blues and greens from the illustrations while creating strong visual breathing room around the small-scale art.

This amazing Japanese woodblock was acquired when our clients were in Japan. They purchased it for their son's graduation and wanted to do something really special, so we framed it in a carved frame from Daedalian and floated it on a hand-wrapped silk mat. The whole package is protected with Optium Museum Acrylic by Tru Vue.

Our client brought in this portrait that his friend had painted for him. At 24x48", it's quite an impressive piece. We used a gold frame from Engelsen Frame & Moulding to accent the presence of the artwork. Both client and artist were thrilled with the outcome.

Our client brought us this terrific painting of butterflies (one of her favorite creatures) to make special. She wanted a silver float frame, but didn't want the silver to be too bright and overpowering. We found this perfect sliver-faced float frame from Fotiou Frames and she couldn't have been more pleased with the final presentation.

Sports jerseys are made from delicate materials that can fade, stretch, or deteriorate if not properly stored. We used UV-protective glass and acrylic to shield the jerseys from harmful rays while reducing glare so every detail remains crisp and vibrant.

Our client wanted to keep the framing on this oil landscape simple, yet beautiful. We chose a quarter-sawn white oak frame from Vermont Hardwoods to accent the organic feel of the art, while not overpowering it.

This is one way to get your ducks in a row! This is a series of 6 stencils by the street artist FNNCH, as well as the finished art made by those stencils. Each stencil was backed with black rag mat and framed in a clean black float frame to give it a defined outline. We used the same frame for the finished canvas art for cohesion.

April showers bring May flowers all year long when you frame a beautiful painting like this one. Our clients were so excited and in love with this painting that they wanted to do something really special around it. The 22kt gold frame is hand carved by our partners at Goldleaf Framemakers of Santa Fe. Our clients couldn't be happier with the result!

These are small glass tiles that were created by our clients while on vacation. They wanted to continue with the translucent feel for the frame, so we chose a Prisma frame by Bella Moulding to complement the blues in the glass. They are mounted on a white linen background to amplify the bold colors.
