Mount Hood - Oregon

Finished this 18 x 24 oil today and it came out well. Now I can't wait to get it framed.

Framing can make so much difference to your art, the wrong choice can ruin a good painting. I know, several years ago I did an still life of tomatoes on a cutting board and framed it in a formal gold plein air frame. It was too ornate and on the advice of an artist friend I changed it. The painting worked so much better in a simple "floater" type frame.

"Graphic Dimensions" - Pictures Plus is having a sale, so I ordered a frame for "Mt. Hood". It will still cost about $100 even at the sale price!
