Macaw and Skulls

This frame was made for a Tikitony original painting. The frame incorporates the very distinct TikiTony style with Seussical vines and trees and his distinct short legged and huge beaked Macaw. The vines were carved down into the interior space of the frame to tie in with the vines in the original artwork. Glue on blocks were used to carve the macaw head and vines for a true out of the box look.

Pineapple and Bamboo

Made for a client in New York city who is a Drew Brophy fan. This frame surrounds the Brophy print titled "Pineapple Express". The sides were painstakingly carved to emulate the pineapple design found in the poster. The bamboo perimeter and full paint job was a new technique for me to enhance the rich look of the frame.
