Why My Originals Are Sold Unframed

If you’ve ever fallen in love with a piece of art and thought, “But will it match the couch?” — you’re not alone.

It’s one of the reasons I offer my pastel originals unframed first.

Not because I don’t love a good frame (I do — especially the ones with soul and beautiful corners), but because I believe the artwork you choose for your home should feel like home. That includes how it’s framed, where it’s placed, and how it fits into your everyday beauty.

By offering original pastel works unframed, you get to make those decisions:

❁ Light oak or classic black?

❁ Minimalist or vintage gold?

❁ Hung above the fireplace or resting quietly above your bedside table?

You get to choose the frame that works with your space — specific to you.

It’s about flexibility. Intention. And giving you art that feels like it was made just for you.

And hey — I get it, sometimes decisions are overwhelming (especially when you're trying to pick between three nearly identical warm wood tones).

So, if you fall in love with an original and want to work together on the framing? I’m all in.

We can find the perfect look that brings the piece — and your space — to life.

Right now, a handful of my original pieces are still unframed and waiting for their forever homes.

These are the quiet ones, the heart pieces — made slowly, with care, each capturing the essence of an animal I’ve spent hours getting to know on paper.

They're available to collectors now, but only for a short while longer.

Soon, I’ll be sending them off to be professionally framed. Once they’re framed, prices will reflect that. And here’s the thing I’ve learned after years of being an artist:

Everyone has their own beautiful framing style — the kind where, the second you see it, you think,

“Oh yes. That’s them.”

If one has caught your eye? This is the moment to make it yours — just the way you like it.

And if you’re curious about a specific original, want to talk framing ideas, or just need a little nudge toward choosing the right one, I got you, send me a message and let's chat, my inbox is always open.

Because life was meant to be beautiful.
