The Story

This piece began as one of three rose studies from a bouquet I bought for my wife. I turned the strongest panel into an experiment, gluing strips of dictionary pages to the lower half, scraping new colors across the top half, scratching paint away and bringing some flowers and leaves back into focus.

Framing Recommendations

The most common sizes (8x10, 11x14) fit into off-the-shelf frames, and less common sizes are easily available through Amazon, while custom framing is available at local frame shops for larger sizes or specialty presentations.

When framing, I recommend using UV-protective glass or acrylic to shield your print from sun damage. Regular glass works well for indoor spaces away from direct sunlight, while museum glass offers maximum protection and reduced glare.

For a professional finish, consider working with a local frame shop, where experts can guide you through options like float mounting (where the print appears to hover within the frame) or traditional matting to enhance the presentation of your piece.
