This week during a stop at an out-of-town Goodwill, the hunt was on for a frame.
A dear friend from a family we have loved for decades had given a truly gorgeous painting of a jungle scene.
So many members of the family are immensely talented artists.
Because the painting was frameless, it has never been hung but that is about to change.
I bought it, brought it home, cleaned it up, and removed the glass front.
The painting's edge could barely fit the top of the frame.
With a hammer to the rescue, I got it into the frame, minus the glass.
It's not perfect but the frame looks classy and the painting remains gorgeous.
Sometimes in life, there is a happy ending to a problematic situation.
In addition to the frame for the painting, I came across a very elaborately framed African-looking print with graceful dancers.
It joined the gold frame and will eventually be part of a wall art gallery in the apartment.
DO YOU PREFER ART TO BE FRAMED?

I like framed art. I think you will enjoy both those paintings very much. They are colorful and will brighten up your apt.
