    Got three more back from framers. They look great!
    I love Philly 2 2013.  Tremendous show and very good poster.  Night one sucked.  I've never had an inkling to frame that one out, whereas Philly 2 has been up since the beginning.  Nice job.

    I don’t have much of prints worth bragging about, but I see people ask what good cheap options are for framing so I thought I’d share my success.
    arttoframe.com
    just got 5 frames in I ordered. Came to about $50 for a matted frame of non-standard size, or about $25-30 without the mat. I’m not a fan of paying more for the frame than I did for the poster, so this was great.

    Something else I’ve learned is Hobby Lobby did a great job of adding a mat to a frame I brought in. materials and labor was only $25. Works great for standard size posters that you want matted or just old art. We got a piece of art at an estate sale with a nasty faded brown 1970s mat. For $25 they changed the mat and looked great.

    Shit thats beautiful.  Thats one of the best frame jobs ive seen for that print. I went with a weathered white frame and silver matting so i kind of did the opposite.  But damn i really like that man.

    That looks awesome!  I actually just got the same poster to complete the set with the "future" version.  Can't wait to get it framed and have them up next to each other.

    Anyone else have the 2016 Ottawa done? I got it from  show but never got it done. Getting tix for the upcoming show makes me want to do it. I was thinking of doing it on the cheap with a black off the shelf frame and just buying a custom mat. Any suggestions?

    Watched some stuff on the Australian fires and the wildlife and this one has a little more meaning to me after that.  A repost from a few years ago but this is one of my favorites on the wall.  Koalas are badass creatures.
