When a Custom Framer buys my work...

....she puts the absolute  best frame on it no matter how much it costs!  I just love this frame with this calf, don't you?

 

8x10 Jersey Calf 

 

I walked in to Lynn's shop, Silver Creek Fine Art and Framing, to find this painting had a couple of frame options, Lynn was frustrated, as many choices she liked had been discontinued.  We both looked over her still vast selection, and this new one really stood out.  I am guessing it would not be one of the least expensive options, but in this case not a problem, Lynn owns the business lol!

 

The bronze color with the gold really brings out the colors in the calf,  and provide a wonderful contrast to the blue sky color.  I love seeing my work in the perfect frame, and I think this one is it!

 

As a side point, it is very difficult to get a perfectly squared photo of a painting, if it isn't framed you can just crop it so it looks squared and not miss anything, but if it's framed, well you can see here.  I either had to cut a bit off or let a bit of behind the frame show and it appears a little cockeyed, but it's not.

This is what an 8x10 can look like framed.  I would say the framing added 2.5" around the edge so the framed size is probably 13x15.
Custom framing is not for everyone, this painting is a standard size and could be placed in any standard frame for an 8x10 as well, and it would still finish it and look great!
