About Frames

Select an available frame for this art to see a preview of what it will look like on your wall. Your framing choice will add between 6 to 20 inches to this dimension.
Unframed - Limited Edition Canvas: Your piece is currently unframed.
Burl: Elegant and traditional, Burl lends itself to a wide range of home décor styles. The outer and inner edges are a rich dark cherry with a beautiful mottled wood grain on an ever so slight curve. It features a cream linen liner and bright gold inner filet that focuses attention on the artwork it frames. Burl is made of genuine hardwood and crafted in the USA.
Dark Walnut: Dark Walnut has a sumptuous medium brown wood finish with stunning wood grain throughout. This frame is perfect for a more traditional or country home décor, with its down-to-earth hue being highlighted by a kindly bronze filigree, a cream linen liner and then accented with a bronze inner filet. The frame is made of genuine hardwood and crafted in the USA.
Aurora Copper: Aurora Bronze is finished in a dazzling deep copper satin sheen. With rope detailing between the hardwood and rich black linen liner, this updated design edges the images with a bronze inner filet. This versatile frame goes well with warmer toned artwork and the popular bronze finishes in today’s home styling. This frame is handmade of fine hardwood and crafted in the USA.
Gallery Bronze: The Gallery Bronze Frame matches the richness of the dark bronze patina to our classic Gallery Frame profile. The moulding features a wide center panel, recessed between a ribbed inner lip and the raised fluted back edge. The clean lines coupled with such a beautiful bronzed finish provides a lovely blend of modern style and rustic charm. (4” Moulding Width)
Caramel: The Caramel Frame showcases the beauty of the burl with broad panels of veneer, displaying the natural grain patterns, knots and color variations of the wood. Finished with a golden rope ornamentation at the inner crest, this classic scoop is aimed at collectors looking for the finest in luxurious wood finish mouldings. (3.5” Moulding Width)
Gallery Bronze Petite: Same as our Standard Gallery Bronze, the “Petite” 3” moulding option finishes our Gallery Frame profile with a rich, dark bronze patina. Designed to fit smaller canvases, our petite line of frames may also appeal to those who prefer a more slender frame profile. (3” Moulding Width)
Cabernet: Our Cabernet Frame presents dark and rich burl wood panels intricately placed on a classic scoop moulding. The sumptuous natural patterns of the wood are masterfully contrasted with a silver rope ornamentation at the inner crest. Holding the highest craftsman standards, this presentation will add sophistication with a touch of opulence to any piece. (3.5” Moulding Width)
City Black: City Black is a cool matte black with well defined angles. It features a black linen scoop liner leading into a light silver inner filet to give it the slightest glimpse of shimmer- contrasting nicely with the matte black finish. This frame is designed for contemporary homes with clean lines and modern décor. This frame is handcrafted of genuine hardwood and proudly made in the USA.
Dark Pewter: 5.75" Moulding - This captivating molding starts with striking antique pewter finish weaving blacks, gray and just subtle hints of silver peaking out. Leading into the painting, you have a generous satin black inlay followed by a brilliant silver fillet. Dark Pewter has amazingly made gray an exciting and beautiful choice.
Brushed Gold: 5.75" Moulding - This beautifully sculpted pale gold frame is a regal addition to our family of museum-quality frames. Deceptively complex, we have stacked four distinct layers of solid wood, interspersing bushed gold main pieces with antiqued silver. The completed ensemble will turn any wall into a showcase.
Carrisa: Ornate flourishes surround the frame Carissa in a lovely champagne gold leaf. The finely detailed filigree is especially wonderful with plein air style artwork but will match décor with either gold or silver accents. Carissa has a cream linen liner and gold inner filet to finish off the look. This frame is hand crafted in genuine hardwood in the USA.
Antique Gold: Antique Gold is a perennial Thomas Kinkade favorite. It is beautifully finished in a warm gold leaf with detailed filigree edging, a cream linen liner and shiny mottled gold inner filet. This frame has been a timeless classic favorite and continues to be a top seller. Antique Gold is crafted of fine hardwood and produced in the USA.
Gallery Gold: Our Gallery Gold Frame showcases the beautiful luster and characteristics of hand applied gold leaf exhibited by the clean lines of our Gallery Frame profile. The moulding features a wide center panel, recessed between a ribbed inner lip and the raised fluted back edge. This clean and modern design is great choice for those seeking to display their next canvas comfortable elegance. (4” Moulding Width)
Gallery Gold Petite: As with our Standard Gallery Gold, the “Petite” 3” moulding option offers the same beautiful luster and characteristics of hand applied gold leaf exhibited by the clean lines of our Gallery Frame profile. Designed to fit smaller canvases, our petite line of frames may also appeal to those who prefer a more slender frame profile. (3” Moulding Width)
Aurora Gold: Aurora Gold has a smooth satin finish and a slight curve followed by light raised almost rope-like detailing, a black velvet liner and shimmery gold inner filet. It gives a quiet elegance to anything it frames and its rich black velvet liner really pulls the eye in. This striking frame is made of genuine hardwood and handcrafted in the USA.
Estate Bronze: Estate Bronze is a warm bronze that appears lit from within. The slight ombre from light to dark tones will pair nicely with most images and the rustic style continues to be on-trend making this an extremely popular choice for years to come. This frame is crafted from fine genuine hardwood and proudly made in the USA.
Rustic Andalucian: Rustic Andalucian is perfect for your modern country style. It is a striking medium rust brown with deep graining and visible wood knots giving it a true high quality look and feel. It features beautiful filigree that is lightly dusted with grey finish to give it Old World character. This frame boasts a lower profile making it perfect for cabin and landscape artwork. It is hand crafted of hardwood in the USA.

About



Inspiration can be thought of as both profoundly spiritual and deeply human. The Guiding Light,first in my Lights of Inspiration series, speaks to the dual nature of inspiration. This brilliant sunset penetrates the swirling storms that sometimes afflict our soul, reminding us that the deep emotions of hope and faith are a truer reflection of our spiritual nature than any doubt or turmoil can be. This radiant light works in concert with the towering clouds to create a sunset that is among the most luminous and dramatic I have ever attempted to capture on canvas.

The Guiding Light introduces a new compositional format for me. The long, narrow canvas is perfect for those settings in the home that call for a panoramic vision. Surely, this dramatic panorama of light can carry the viewer's imagination to sweeping distant vistas.
