When one thinks of an art gallery, custom framing shops don’t usually come to mind immediately. Sometimes owning an original piece can be pricey, but what if your budget doesn’t allow big gallery prices just yet?

Or maybe you are buying your first home and decorating on a tight budget. Perhaps you are an artist and looking to frame your work with just the right presentation? No matter what your situation, whether just starting out or trying to add some pizzazz to a dorm room, Frames & Images offers numerous choices in all prices that would fit anyone’s budget.

The shop offers watercolors and limited edition prints from Tennessee artists, including Stephanie J. Brichetto,Clark Marie, Gary Manson, Rita Manson and Norma Riegle.

Their work can be viewed on the online gallery. Frames & Images also offers more standard fare, like fine quality prints from the Old Masters. So whatever your taste, you are sure to find something that will enhance your space and make your budget happy too!

Stop by and see the selections at Frames & Images in the new location, 9215 Middlebrook Pk. Suite 550A Knoxville, TN 37931.
