Here's some more stuff I've recently framed...

Image

It was totally un-intentional, but the texture of the bridge & the texture of the frame are an exact match :)

This is BIG! 72" Tall, about 32" wide!

Strange bedfellows...

Got this Scrojo print and had it framed for my brother. Niether of us are Particle fans, but he's got a 1966 split-window VW Camper bus, so it seemed appropriate. I found the 14X20 frame at Aaron Brothers, discarded the two window matte that came with it and had a friend at a local frme shop hook up the new matte and seal the back. Scrojo's giclees are normally a nice, unobtrusive size and easy to frame.

I'm 99% sure I'm using a 'chocolate' mat, but it isn't finished yet...

Doesn't translate to camera well, but the mat is a pretty close match to the dark brown in the rocks.

32X40 is a standard size piece of glass that needs no cutting so dont let them screw you with a labor charge.

36x48 is the norm in the UK.. thats how my glass comes
Cutting the glass is the easiest part of framing
