As some of you know I am a framing snob. Not that I insist on it, quite the opposite. I don't  believe it in, kind of like the granite thing, pigs with earrings, etc. etc. But even I can change my opinion

Someone told me in my painting group that frames are like choosing jewelry for an outfit. They finish the piece off. Could believe that. Old dogs, new tricks.
