What a difference

I never realized so much thought went in to the framing of artwork before it is sold, but Peter shows what a difference the type and color of the frame can make! I always cringe at the cost of frames for artwork, so I imagine that hand making the frames is much more economical, and allows the artist more control over the display of their work. I love this idea, and I will never underestimate the humble frame, again.
