Thomas,
First response is that it would confuse the heck out of me as a customer with an artwork to frame
but since you would be giving me 2 hours I would be less blown away by the task.
There is an art to framing. Ten years ago I could visualize the display space , and required lighting to be used hence a pretty good idea of what I wanted. I've painted rooms, installed new lighting, just for paintings/sculpture. I've purchased paintings, just because I thought the framing was perfect for the art ( and I liked the Art
) . I have purchase art because I knew exactly where it would go ( and I could visualize the frame) and I liked it . My most semi-valuable buys are in London, Europe and US which is just as well since the humidity and dust play hell with the ones I have here
. I have tried the silicon spray but not much success and not on a favourite painting.
I have two good Framers here in Goa. One has a more traditional view of framing art and the other has a more modern design view. One concentrates on the piece of Art and the second on where it will be placed and the décor of that space.
Interested In what JA has to say since he has shown effort and taste in his new country project (house) .
It appears to me that, between us in your workshop, we could find the appropriate framing. I'm pretty much with Akira but I would probably go for the one at the left upper corner of the painting.
Cheers,
Tom
Edit: your neighbour, across the way, really should do something about that door... maybe some "Sreet Art" lol
