Framing Options
Frames Ready-to-Hang
​​
Framing is important for presenting and protecting your artwork. A frame should complement the aesthetic of your home and the artwork, without becoming the center of attention.
You may select to have your new artwork shipped without the frame and choose your own. This option will decrease shipping costs and purchase price. Framed paintings are shipped ready to hang.
​
Artwork measuring up to 11"x14” includes an artist-selected frame unless you prefer a custom frame, as well as free shipping within the contiguous 48 United States. If your artwork features custom framing, exceeds 11"x14", or is being shipped outside of the lower 48 states, complimentary professional packing will still be provided, but you will be responsible for the actual shipping costs.​
Large pieces are best displayed with a high quality, often hand-carved custom frame, usually with gold leaf. Should you prefer that option please contact me directly to discuss options. This option will incur an additional charge determined by the cost of the frame and installation as well as the inconvenience of waiting for a custom frame.​
If you have questions about framing or wish a frame with a specific finish, please contact the artist.
