The impact of tall slender pieces and tiny paintings with large mats

We are all accustomed to pieces of art being of a certain proportion, often rectangular, and often framed in the same way.  But sometimes it is nice to shake up the norm. We recently framed a couple of beautiful tall, slender paintings that look spectacular! We also framed some tiny scenic paintings in the center of much larger mats, and instead of being lost on a wall, these pieces will be much more impactful!

Epic Framing of Historic Cotton Sacks!!

We recently had the privilege of framing three large historic cotton sacks! This was no easy task, as each bag required pinning to a backing board, construction of a large deep shadow-box type frame, and due to the size, the use of plexiglass. We think the pieces turned out wonderfully!

Here are all three with Hunter Hart, Saxon Wilson, and Mark Wood in front to show the size.
