Love these prints but are you going to reframe them? The shiny frames don't do the pieces justice...maybe a rough wood frame perhaps? Thank you, I was thinking the same thing, a nice burled witco style frame would be perfect. I think they are actual paintings from what I can tell and not prints. :) You might be able to do it on the cheap...Just sand down those frames to wood, get a hand blow torch or pencil torch and line burn some random areas, then stain or varnish the frames. Good way to reuse with a different look.
