Why do you do a lot of pieces in the 17 x 23 inch size? Can they be framed and matted to another size?
I enjoy working with 18 x 24 size Strathmore watercolor paper. I tape off the borders and work within approx. 17 x 23 inches. Most of my paintings can be cropped or matted to 16 x 22 or in some cases 16 x 20. You can purchase a mat in a size that you think compliments the art and then get a ready made frame that fits and you can frame the work at a reasonable price. Or you can have it custom framed. Framing is expensive, that's why I try to keep my art affordable in the first place. Watercolors and pastels have to be protected and framed. But, they also look so beautiful and brilliant under glass.
Affordable colorful abstracts, landscapes and equine art. Commissioned pet portraits. Pastel, watercolor, charcoal and acrylic. Contact me at: carol.engles@gmail.com or text me at: (951) 704-2440 Art Copyright 2008-2023
