Congratulations,
you invested in a piece of artwork!
Framing Guide
Custom Framing: If you would like a custom frame created for your piece I recommend that you check out a local frame shop first. If you live in Colorado Springs you can check out 45degree Gallery.
Matt Your Art: Adding a mat to your work creates whitespace which adds a calming effect for the artwork to shine. The piece will take up more space on your wall and bring more attention to the beautiful artwork you invested in. Adding a mat is a personal preference and not necessary
FRAME SUGGESTIONS
Canvas or Wood Panel Artwork
Ampersand Floater frame Wood Panel - Multiple Colors and Sizes - Link
What is a floater frame? These frames create the illustion that your artwork is floating within the frame. This is typically used with oil paintings so that the texture and artwork is not covered by glass. This pairs really well with work that has been varnished and already has protection. This is a very modern and beautiful way to display your artwork.
If you live in Colorado Springs and want a custom wood float frame send me an email at MJBriggsArt@gmail.com there are a few people in town I can suggest.
