This work is Oil and Acrylic 200cm X 200cm on Fine Belgian Linen, signed on the front and sent with an artist CV and certificate of authenticity.

The work is sealed with a conservationist Gloss Varnish and is painted on Fine Belgian Linen which provides a beautiful finish for the paint and is long lasting so gives the painting posterity for many hundreds of years and the conservationist quality varnish is essential as it doesn't yellow or crack with light and age and means that you can wipe the painting free of dust with a damp cloth if you need to which will also preserve its life.

The painting is painted on the sides so if hung stretched without an exterior frame it will still look lovely from any angle (no ugly white sides). I actually hang all large works in my house without exterior frames because I feel that allows the paintings to continue beyond its borders.
However exterior frames can look lovely. If you decide to add an exterior frame I suggest choosing a frame that matches your furniture. ie if you have natural timber choose a timber frame, if you have a lot of black trim choose a black frame. But I would not normally recommend a black or white frame if you don't have a lot of black or white in your home - normally a soft neutral timber is going to look better. But I have included images with different exterior frames so you can see what they look like.

The work is sent Unstretched (this is taken into account in the price) in a roll ready for stretching and or framing. It is much safer for work this size to travel in a roll and then be delivered to you or directly to the framer. Framers charges vary greatly so you may choose to go with convenience or to shop around for a stretching price.

All work over 100cm is sent via Pack and Send and under 100cm is sent via Australia Post Express
