The Summer Country: Framing on a Budget, Part 2: Mat Boards
http://thesummercountryart.blogspot.com/2014/06/framing-on-budget-part-2-mat-boards.html
Wednesday, June 25, 2014. Framing on a Budget, Part 2: Mat Boards. On the Subject of Mat Boards…. Most of the stores listed in. Sell frames with pre-cut mats inside. If I don’t want to use those mats for the art I am framing, I will put them aside for matting prints, or other future artworks. If it is a single-layer mat, I can generally cut it larger if I want. (I have my own mat-cutting tools at home.). Purchasing Mat Boards…. Art and Craft supply stores (Such as Michael’s. And Jerry’s Artarama. If you ...

The Summer Country: June 2013
http://thesummercountryart.blogspot.com/2013_06_01_archive.html
Tuesday, June 4, 2013. 6 Pieces for the Shadowfist Game. Back in April, I signed a contract with Inner Kingdom Games, Inc., to create 6 pieces for an expansion of the Shadowfist card game. They were completed by mid day on June 1st, and it is a glorious accomplishment. I was given parameters to meet for each card. These were all painted in watercolor, with white gouache for highlights, as per usual for my paintings. The first one I drew, and the first one I painted. Estate of the Oncoming Storm.

http://thesummercountryart.blogspot.com/2014/03/the-voyager-new-viking-watercolor.html
Wednesday, March 26, 2014. The Voyager - New Viking Watercolor Painting. Original Size: 16x22 inches. The concept has been in my head for a while - the layout has been nagging me for months. I began working on him in February, at my shop at Sherwood Forest Faire. I ended up completing him one Saturday evening at the faire, and clipped him to the easel to put safely into the vehicle. Below are the before and afters:. I am very happy that he ended up restoring well. The colors are slightly different fr...

The Summer Country: Framing Art on a Budget, Pt. 1: Purchasing
http://thesummercountryart.blogspot.com/2014/06/framing-art-on-budget-pt-1-purchasing.html
Wednesday, June 25, 2014. Framing Art on a Budget, Pt. 1: Purchasing. One of the questions my friends and customers often ask is, “Where can I find a frame? Here is a list of stores I use, located in the United States:. I don’t always find a good frame there, however I have gotten some screaming deals on pre-cut 16x20 mats. With 8x10” openings. These I can cut to larger sizes if I need. Stock is always random. I have found some great 16x20 frames for $10-$15. Stock is always random. A Painting of Fenrir.
