Sometimes the frame really does need to know when to stay quiet.This striking figurative artwork features a richly detailed traditional figure against a deep black background, with warm terracotta, gold, green and turquoise tones creating the visual impact.A slim black frame was chosen to almost disappear into the artwork's dark background. Rather than introducing another colour or competing decorative element, the frame creates a clean finished edge and allows the intricate costume, profile and warm colours of the artwork to remain the focus.It’s a great example of how simple custom framing can be just as considered as something elaborate — particularly when the artwork already has plenty to say.Custom artwork and picture framing by Sunset Framing & Gallery, Port Macquarie.
