My sculptured paintings do not need to be framed. The stone work is a part of the painting but it also carries around the corner creating a very durable frame. Some people just like frames though and some paintings really stand out with a frame. For example look at the two photos below of my painting Window To Assisi:
Here is the painting without the frame.
And with a frame. 
I do not want to skew the voting so I’ll save my opinion for later. Leave a comment here, on my FaceBook page or Twitter. This painting is available on my Original Paintings page too (framed or unframed).
Thank You!
