Hand Painting a Frame Specifically for a Painting
Painted frame detail
"Hat Lady With Red Flowers", 5" x 7", oil on panel
I wanted to show you how I finished off this Hat Lady painting by hand-painting it's frame. Although a frame always becomes part of the finished artwork, I feel it is even more so in this instance an integral part, since it was hand-painted by me.
Thanks Barbara! Believe it or not the frame took almost as long to paint as the painting, but glad to know the results are pleasing, and I liked how it came out also.

Hi Mona, This looks luscious! The frame looks great, tying it all together. I love how everything jumps, so 3D! Another beauty!
