This is…read morea review for a job he did a few months ago, while he was at the end of his lease on Flat Shoals Ave. The job was just custom-cutting 3 mats for 3 store-bought frames I already had. We had a great conversation about Atlanta, its arts scene, development around town, etc. Since my job (and artwork) was so small, he offered to save me some money by using leftover pieces of a high-quality archival mat board. Very helpful. We discussed that one mat in particular was to be given as a gift that Sunday to a visiting relative, and he assured me it would be ready for pickup by Friday or Saturday at the latest. Sadly, no call until the following Wednesday. Minus one star. The mats all look great, but the way they were done really shocked me: we discussed the artwork being hinged to the back matboard. I've only seen it done this way with the front mat window hinged at the top to the back mat, so that you can lift the front window and see the artwork attached to the back mat with photo corners. What I received was the artwork completely sealed between the two pieces of matboard. Like, permanently sandwiched and trapped between the front window and the back piece of matboard. Which means I can only re-frame the artwork into another frame of exactly the same size. And if anything happens to the matboard, the artwork would have to be rescued with an exacto knife, thereby cutting the original artwork to the size of the mat window. Is this a technique others have used or even heard of? Like I said, it looks good, but I believe all 3 pieces of original artwork were, for all archival intents and purposes, destroyed in this process. So minus one more star for this--?? It leaves me quite freaked out. I'm interested in re-framing them to get better UV protection, which is why this is coming up now. Wish I'd written this earlier to warn others, but better late and damaging than never, I guess???

Snellville Framing and Fine Art is a high quality store without the high prices, and I am so glad I…read morefound them! The owner is knowledgeable, personable, and a huge fan of art, and it shows in his work. I came in with an oversized art print (30x40) and an idea of how I wanted it framed. He gave me two ways of framing and quotes for art glass and regular glass--no pressure to buy, just giving us the information. I appreciate that he wanted to give us options that were in our budget. I chose a floating mat and maple frame with an inch border around, and the price was more than reasonable. He completed the framing in 3 business days (!) and even helped us carry it to the car. The most impressive thing is that Eric remembers every person's art piece, without even needing to look it up. It's a personal touch that I found remarkable, compared to other shops I've been to (which were prohibitively expensive). The shop does also showcase Eric's own work which is really cool! All in all, I would trust Eric with framing any keepsakes or cherished art that you may have.

I've been using Eric for years and HIGHLY recommend his work. He's a craftsman when it comes to…read moretaking care of your special memories and fine art. His prices are also great for custom frames. He keeps a wide selection of framing in stock, so you know for certain that what you select for your project is what you will get. His work area is also viewable in store, so you see exactly where he does his work. You may even catch him working on commissioned paintings for other customers as well. In talking to Eric, I've learned that he has framed art and memories for politicians, and musicians, as well as preachers and teachers. He cares for everyone and each job as though it was a gift for his own family. He loves hearing the stories behind your special memories and he use that to help you find just the right frame. I couldn't recommend Eric any more highly.

Prior to meeting Scott, I'd never considered framing much of an art from. You just slap a black…read moreborder and a single white matte and you're done. But I've come to find out, if you have a good, complimentary frame and matte, your art will pop and standout far better than by itself or a more traditional frame. Scott is providing a service, not a product. What's this service? He has a natural knack for choosing ideas that will make people say, "Wow!" I brought three prints to Scott for framing and told him up front - I have no eye for color or artistic je ne sais quoi. Scott quickly went to his countless supplies and picked out a frame and mattes that pulled from the first print's colorway. I thought to myself, "You're crazy and this will look terrible," but surrendered to what I knew was a great reputation. The next print he drew from the subject matter (some sort of tiki-god-esque thing) and picked a frame with embossed/carved skulls. Now this, I was more on board with until he pulled out one of the blandest looking mattes I've seen (unframed). OK? Surrendering again. I'll spare you the details of the last print -you know where this story is going. Two weeks later, Scott gave me a call to pick up the pieces and I was blown away. Particularly with the first one (pictured) that seemed so outlandish prior to seeing the finished product. My advice - give Scott a try. Surrender. You may have an idea for how you want something to look, but Scott's idea is better. He also went the extra mile and adjusted a couple of things I noticed when I got home - do not abuse this privilege. Lastly, framing isn't cheap. I've had a few other things framed around town from businesses I liked. Scott's prices are comparable, but his skillset in making excellent choices is unrivaled. Somehow, he's remained a well-kept secret for too long.

The space strives to house all the wonderful artistic movements Atlanta has to offer under one roof. At the Halloween's Eve event I hit up, I caught musical performances by both Wighat and Los Buenos. A musician accompanied me to the party, commenting on the high-quality sound and impressive stage set-up. Plus, Holly Lang of Pine Magazine was working the bar, where she mixed me a very strong Jack and Coke. I also must mention that "picaflor" is Spanish for "hummingbird." Fantástico!

I was fortunate enough to attend the See Through Souls event tonight, a benefit for the Women's Resource Center to Stop Domestic Violence, and found it to be enchanting. Many artists were in attendance, and there were a long string of musical performances. When I first walked in I wondered how the acoustics would be since the space is loft-like and therefore has a lot of hard surfaces, but the sound was great. We caught the bands Walk From The Gallows, Los Buenos, What Happened to Your Fire Tiger, and Tag Team (my son Matt's guitar teacher plays in this one) each of which were amazingly talented. Definitely recommend - check out their events page for upcoming performances and events.

The showing was of two artists and I enjoyed their offerings very much. For the amount of people that came the space was way too small. It was hot and cramped which made it hard to view the pieces. All in all, it was a nice time with friends.

I have grown weary of staying out 'til 3 on the weekends but still crave the edgy atmosphere that contrasts with workweek office vibes. So going to a free opening at the Kibbee Gallery at 8 p.m. is a great substitute - and much more visually stimulating than the gray haze of a dive bar. Kibbee resides within an old house behind Fellini's, complete with hardwood floors, crown molding and a decorative fireplace. A few pieces have hung on the walls during the past two Ponce Crush strolls I attended - one is a charcoal sketch of Mickey Mouse ice cream bars and another, a drawing of an innocent blonde sitting Indian style in sneakers and a sweatshirt, aptly titled "Teenagers Live Forever." I could get used to the art stroll/Diet Coke/in bed by midnight on a Saturday thing.
