YOUR SAFETY COMES FIRST
During the COVID-19 Pandemic, we will temporarily be open on an appointment only basis.
Please give us a call or send an email to schedule a time and date.
We insist that all of our unvaccinated visitors wear a mask and respect each other's personal space. Hand sanitizer will be provided, and please be prepared to have your temperature checked with a touch-free thermometer.
If you feel sick, or have been in close contact with anyone who has shown symptoms or tested positive, please stay home.
Thank you for understanding. We look forward to fully opening once our community is safe once again.
We are under new ownership, and would like to thank Mike and all of the Carpinteria customers for their years of support. We hope to continue to serve you all from our new home, just a short drive away!
Our mission is to continue Mike's legacy of high quality custom framing. We welcome all customers, old and new to call or email us with any questions.

WE LOVE A CHALLENGE
Since 2008
Experience is the key to the mastery of this craft.
My skills and experience are available to you.
Gallery, museum, local references and resume available upon request.
The craft of picture framing has changed little over the centuries. Framers still use the basic skills passed down through their mentors. The principles of presenting, preserving and protecting a work of art remain the same today.
The exact materials used today by major museums for the preparation and conservation of works of art, and the techniques to use them correctly, are available to you through a properly skilled framer.
