Made this Spalted maple frame for an 8-1/2“ x 11” oil on wood panel interpretation of Emily Dickinson’s, “Hope is the Thing with Feathers”. Since the frame was to be part of the painting, it was finished with a glaze of thinned oil paints. I think the spalt showing through the glaze provided an aged look fitting for the painting, but I definitely prefer naturally finished wood.
