Picture This Gallery & Framing

Great, Ed did a fantastic job working wit us to match the right frames with the matte board. We was working with watercolors from the 1800, and treated them with great care.

It couldn't have gone better. Ed helped me select everything—frame, mats, glass—and the final product is gorgeous. I won't hesitate to go back for my next framing project!

I could not be happier! Ed is wonderful!

Ed was very attentive & helped me pick out frame & mats for my prices. He did a beautiful job & I will use him again. High quality work.

Very well. The two paintings were on rice paper and, although similar, had been glued to backings of different colors. The colors show through the rice paper and give the paint colors slightly different values, which made it a challenge to mat and frame the two paintings. But Ed spent a great deal of time with us, choosing the frames and then the mats. The paintings are double-matted; the heavier mats in the front are more neutral, but the thinner backing mats are different colors due to the different values of the paints. The paintings hang side by side facing a wall of windows, so we chose a non-reflective glass of high quality. Ed didn't stop with the framing, matting, and glass. He meticulously thinned down the backing as well, which has improved the way the paintings sit in the frames. We give Ed an A for price, but that isn't because he's the least expensive. We give him an A for price because we believe that his price is excellent in light of the very high quality of his work. We have been to other, less expensive places to have some items framed, but it doesn't take an expert to see the difference in the quality of Ed's work. Our best artwork deserves the best framing, and for that we have gone to Ed for many years and will continue to patronize him. It isn't easy to find his shop, but the search is worth the effort. One warning: Give Ed a call before you go, just to make sure he's in his shop when you go.

Ed was really personable and helpful with his expertise for making the right selection

I can always count on great advice and great service at Picture This. This time was no exception.

What an amazing eye Ed has and great ideas. Ask for help and you'll get it. Tell him what you want and you'll get it. He has lots of frame and mat options. He may not be the cheapest, but he is the best I've found in the area! My advice-Try him, you'll like him!

Ed did a great job! We spent more than 2 hours with him selecting framing materials, mats, etc. to our satisfaction. He gave us a fair estimate and projected when the work would be done. About right on the dot. Very high quality for things that matter to you. Very highly recommended. He'll get more of our stuff in the future!

The proprietor was pleasant, very helpful when I described what I wanted, he asked about the kind of frame, matting, glass desired: gave a cost for the total project.

Owner Ed, gave suggestion. for mats, glass & frame.

I had pictures framed before by Ed Smith and knew he would frame my old map with extreme care and do it correctly. It cost more, but how much does peace of mind cost when you want something done right?!

The owner worked carefully with me to select just the right frame and matting for my print. I appreciated the effort he put into the selection process.

Excellent. It took some time but Mr. Smith was able to locate a wonderful match then made sure the actual molding was a good match when he received it from the vendor.

Friendly, good quality, will use again.

Ed has a artist eye -. He wasn't happy until I was happy. One frame came in & it wasn't the same as the one he showed me so he sent it back, His attention to every last detail was amazing.

Finished very quickly, excellent job.

-We had several phone & in person discussion.
-Very patient, never asked.
-Great guy, great company.

He gave me an approximate time the job would be completed and it was right on time.  The colors that he helped pick out look fabulous!  He also gave me an "extra" print of the Rolling Stones logo that was from the other side of the t-shirt - not expected, but extremely kind.

As always, my pictures were framed beautifully. I was helped picking out frame & matting, it was finished on time & I love it!

The washstand was exactly as described and pictured.  He had it ready for me to load in the car.  
I took two large pictures that had the backing torn and he removed the old backing, cleaned the back of the picture/frame, replaced the backing with new paper and put on a new picture wire.  He even added rubber bumpers to the bottom corners of the frame.  He was very friendly and efficient.  

Ed was very helpful with the design of the collage.

Ed made it so easy.  He has such a good eye & helped me select a beautiful frame that, as requested, was reasonably w/in my budget. He couldn't promise it would be ready in time for Xmas, (which I understood as I was late), but he came through by the 22nd!!! So very kind & looks spectacular!

The owner of the store is right there and does the work. You always feel very comfortable that you are getting the right answer to your question. I highly recommend them. They do a good job. We took the paintings to them. We have nothing but success.
