I called the Frame Shop and was assured that the framing of my print would not be a problem, nor expensive. I dropped it off that day and, despite the fact that this is the busiest time of year for them, my custom made frame was ready the very next day. I received a very nice text notification from the owner to let me know that my item was ready for pick up. I could not be more impressed with the excellent and prompt service I received. My framed print came out absolutely perfect! I am so excited to give this gift to my best friend.

If you've been on her site, you've probably seen it. It is a painting of some Irish sheep on a hillside, reminiscent of a contemporary Alfred Morris piece. It had hung over my in-laws' coal-burning fireplace for more than 40 years. It was covered in soot, and the varnish had discolored and deteriorated terribly. The frame was in such bad condition it didn't make the trip from Ireland. Caroline made it a true Labor of Love, and the results are astonishing. The image is far brighter now, and she not only cleaned it up, she removed the bad varnish and replaced it with a new, clear, much more durable one. We found a frame selection that we felt was perfect for the image, but were thrown a mean curve ball--it was discontinued, and the manufacturer was out of business. Undaunted, Caroline literally scouted the country for it, and struck pay dirt with a small distributor in the Seattle area. They had just enough stock to complete the project, and we are ecstatic at the result. A full step-by-step video of the process of her cleaning and restoration of the piece is on the Uptown website, and is a wonderful showcase of her care and ability. I can recommend her without reservation, and going forward, I would not trust anyone else to even touch my art. Caroline is a true artist and student of her business, and we are very grateful indeed to have found her. Gordon W. Neufang
