I'm in frame production mode. I'm making natural wood floater frames for my 6x6" daily paintings for an upcoming show. I've looked online but can't find anything I like at a reasonable price. Anyone have a favorite frame source?
Most floater frames are for stretched canvas (see also Jerry's who do a new 'natural' floater frame finish). I've read that for paintings on panels you have to glue it on to wood batons that you can then screw in from the back - that way the painting won't be inset. But I haven't tried it yet...
Love the boat painting - so simple and lovely - and so excited about buying one of your paintings today!
Mike, I use Franken Frames. I love them. Photos of framed panels are shown on my blog, on posts from 10/12/10, and 3/18/10. If you are interested, take a look. Hope this helps.

I know painters who are happy with Franken Frames. I make most of mine as you are doing now.Your blog has been looking great Mike.
Michael I found a good craftsman at Etsy. He is Art City Frames. There aren't floaters though. For those I use King of Frames in CA.
