I atoned for my mistake of selling this 1yr ago. It took me a year, but I finally got one back. Thanks to tadrules for the hookup. :pint:
Forgive me for the massively wide pic. Making this any smaller would not do it justice!


and if you wanna know, the frame (& 1/4" spacers) was purchased on framesbymail.com

That looks great! Such a great piece.
I also used framesbymail.com for my frame. I did go with a mat though.

That looks great. Thinking of reframing mine in a similar style (no mat). First I wanna find a place to get a piece of museum glass that big.

IMO, too much white, distracting, without a mat.

IMO, I think it's perfect like that, without the mat.

Agreed, I wouldn't have thought to use that color mat, but it looks great.

A few McCarthy pieces I just framed. I had a hard time selecting mats for "Symbiosis" because of the odd color scheme, but I'm pretty happy with the overall result.
