Some samples of our award winning designs

This
silkscreen by Chris Pashke is mounted onto a raised,
gold leafed platform. The bevel of the outer mat is
painted gold and the entire outer mat is lifted to create
dimension. Finally a water guilded gold frame with oriental
detailing completes the piece.
The matting for this machine stitched welcome is
hand wrapped with two layers of fabric. The first is
a bright blue to match the background of the stitching
and the second is a sheer gold metallic. The inner lip
of the matting is finished of with a gold filet to complement
the gold frame. This piece won first place in our area
competition and second place in the national competition.
