The yellow "blob"




Hi,

May I suggest, concerning the yellow section, to not change it, but consider when framing it (I assume since it's acrylic it can be framed with a mat and glass) that you add a 3" yellow mat (along with a 2nd 1/4" complementary mat of another color). Off the top of my head I can't suggest what the frame should look like (maybe a natural birch wood comes to mind).

You've done a great job!
Linda

Richard,

My husband was reading this thread tonight and thought that my reply to you could sound arrogant. I'm sorry if it did come across that way, I certainly didn't mean for it to.

Linda,

That's a great suggestion, I wish you were around when we did frame it. It was a Christmas gift this last year. We ended up just putting a plain semi-gloss rounded black frame on it (no glass), because there were so many colors we couldn't decide which ones to bring out.

Cheers,
Holly

Holly,

I didn't get the impression of arrogance at all. If anything you should feel confident of your great work. But I appreciate your husband's concern.

Cheers

Richard,

Good to hear. You just never know how your comments will sound to someone you're talking to blindly. Thanks to significant others, our biggest supporters and yet biggest critics!

Take care,
Holly
