People often ask me, "Krysztof, you're an artist who depends on fine, fine custom framing for your…read morepin-up drawings...who do you go to to get that done?" And I tell them, "Well, The Frame Gallery on Westport Road, of course!" This place is awesome. When you walk in, the first thing you notice is that they obviously have good taste; and honestly, if someone's going to be putting my artwork in a custom-made frame, I want them to have good taste. It shows that they're going to take the same care with my work's presentation as they do with their own. It says a lot about a place when you can walk in and think to yourself, "Yeah, they get it." The work they do is awesome. Top notch, seriously. I've gone in needing a particular kind of framing for my work, and the entire process of making that happen was effortless. When they saw what I was bringing in, and how I wanted it worked up, they instantly knew the best solution, both in construction and in choice of materials. They're looking at your art with an artist's eye, and the no-nonsense attitude of fine craftsmen. That's who I want working on my artwork, my keepsakes, my gifts to others; not some part-time clerk at Hobby Lobby or Michaels who doesn't have the same care or experience. And as an added bonus : The Frame Gallery has a section in their shop called Tuffboy Antiques! I've spent a lot of time perusing their mostly mid-century treasures and ephemera. Obviously, the same taste and attention to detail that they put into their work goes into what they offer through their Antiques section. I have a feeling that as soon as I get the next batch of stuff back from The Frame Gallery, I'm just gonna bring something else in to get framed...and you should, too!

I brought a painting that I have had sitting around the house for 20 years to the Little Gallery,…read moreand they did a beautiful job on it. I was shown a number of different options for frames according to the style and colors in the painting (a nude by Leo Jansen, 1930-1980) and one of them was absolutely perfect, with an inner border that echoed the theme of the pearls being held by the subject of the painting. The work was done days before it had been promised, and I will definitely recommend this business to everyone. I can't imagine what the other reviewer is talking about. Maybe he should get out more.

Currently, the City is extending the Streetcar line, so there is a lot of construction barriers and road plates to overcome. The cute store has a nice private parking lot with 2 entry points. The employees are super friendly and extremely knowledgeable about the products. I was inquiring about leather paints for shoes. The clerk was provided awesome service making sure I understood the paint and all the needs to clean it up. I didn't feel pressured to purchase anything. They offered individual paints or sets for this particular type of paint. They had a selection of "specialty" colors that are made in small batches and a little more exclusive than the regular. Their open stock pens are glorious!!! Whether you are looking for an inexpensive Flair pen or Sharpie, or a more spendy Copic, you can choose from many different brands, and price points. They have canvases, and lots of blank bags, pouches, tshirts and other items that you can alter to share your art! They have numerous types of clay, molding clay, pottery clay, fine art medium and even novice kits. Prices: I shop a lot at other hobby and craft stores, so I would know if the Dick Blick prices are out of range. They aren't, in fact the prices were great! Stop by Starbucks and get a drink, and wander across the street and browse! i think you will love their selection and the wonderful atmosphere that appeals to your creative side!

I'm a huge sports fan, so I finally got it together and brought my Kansas City championship newspaper front pages in.

Please let Scotty know if you have any ideas. He's happy to help.
