Weekend Features: Framed Art Phenomena 4
Framed Art Phenomena
When choosing the correct frame for your art piece, it’s almost a joint collaboration with the artist itself. The artists work is like the naked soul and the frame/matte is like the outer clothing. The wrong frame, and the piece can suffer. But when everything is done well, the results can often be like an epiphany…
“Already an instant classic, Struzan’s “Frankenstein” rests comfortably it its dark-spiny framed lair. It’s of special note to point out that this particular print is #1 out of 325. WOW!”

“Perfect ornate antique frame for this classic looking piece. Framed by James Ashton at Brampton Picture Framing, Chesterfield, Derbyshire, UK. The frame blends in so well with the French-styled artwork, letting the orange colored dress of the main image pop out.”

“Pinpoint frame selection for this McCarthy print. It’s as if all the colors of this print is perfectly incorporated into the frame itself.”

“I love this haunting image done by McCarthy. You can almost smell the misty air walked by these extinct beings. The matte choice is brillant. Looks just like how I image dinosaur skin to look like :)”

“Frame selection and matte selection is in vein of the atmospheric stories entwined within a Daniel Danger image.”

“As cool as Dylan’s dark shades, this wide black frame and matte combo contributes to this sleek and classic poster done by Sperry.”

Weekend Features: “The Thing” by Tyler Stout
Posters From The Past
When it comes to movie poster artists nowadays, Tyler Stout is top tier. His extravagantly illustrated posters are so densely packed with key elements, scenes, and characters of the movie, that you almost feel that you are watching the entire movie just by looking at his posters. Stout’s style of photo-realistic meets comic-book action hero illustrations seems to bring the characters to life. I have never seen so much active motion going on in a still image of a Tyler Stout poster.
This poster first went on sale in April of 2008 on www.mondotees.com and then later on his own website. From what can recall, this poster was slow steady build to the “Holy Grail” heights that it is now. Getting the poster on drop day was pretty effortless, but as weeks and months passed, fans kept coming back to this print, new fans discovered this and the talent of this artist, and nowadays it is regarded as a classic Tyler Stout.
“The Thing” is a 24″ x 36″ 5-color screenprint with GID ink. Every character infected by The Thing has glow-in-the-dark eyes. Very cool! The regular edition had a run of 210, and variant Silver Edition of 65. Initial secondary market prices lingered around the $150-200 range, but with Stout’s popularity literally exploding, seeing secondary market sells in excess of $2000+ has been documented a number of times.
