Cynthia, I thought I would try the painting in a frame for you!
Please remember the canvas is only 9 x 12.

Beth,
Knowing you are a Pino fan, have you seen the frames he's been using for the past couple of years? I think it might be great for this painting. For your painting, the scale would be similar to the gold sample you showed above, but the frame is a matte black wood (no ornamentation, just simple mitered corners -- preferable filled -- with a gold-leaf thin band set slightly out from the rabbet.) A fillet could work, but for the look to work, the gold has to be matte, too. I haven't seen frames like this in catalogues, but I thought of it right away for this charming piece.

Thanks Chris!
I have not seen a Pino in person, so maybe I can do a gallery search to find this frame. One would think it sounds rustic, but I bet it is very elegant. Let me know if you come across one. Maybe Karin has one hidden in her modeling stand!

Beth - I can feel the soft texture of the rug under her bare feet - beautifully done!
