Man in Black

This is the gift that B did for a friend of ours. It's huge and the photograph doesn't do it justice. It's a dark brown burned frame with a double mat - black with white core and gun metal with black core. It's HUGE and when it was still here at the house, I would stare at it for an hour at a time.

This amazes me about my husband. He can take 2 plain flat sheets of mat board (looks like posterboard but much thicker) and do a million and twelve math equations and end up with something like this. The frame? Started out in 5 foot lengths. More math. More vision. More cutting. He cuts the glass himself, too.

When it's all said and done, I don't know what is more art - the print or the mat and frame. Posted by Picasa
