STRETCHING & FRAMING
I give my collectors the chance to purchase my paintings unstretched. This gives you the option to take advantage of Bluethumb’s free framing or go with unstretched if you want to keep costs down. Working like this also allows the painting to extend around the edges, which means the artwork will look great with or without a decorative frame.
For stretching and/or framing, utilise Bluethumb’s framing options to the right of screen above the 'ADD TO CART' button.

“I’ve lived a little. I’ve travelled a lot. My work is an expression of life experiences good times and bad. I begin with a feeling and end wherever the music and the paint takes me. I’m not trying to answer life’s riddles, it’s more like… this is how I’m feeling."
