Full Conservation treatment...

Creative Framing is a full service Custom Frame Shop  from poster treatment to pure museum conservation framing.

Ria's designation as a Certified Picture Framer with the PPFA is a continuing re-certification education program, allowing her to stay abreast of the latest techniques, conservation products available, and current design trends.  You can feel comfortable in knowing that your valued art will be properly handled with all the requirements in place to meet the set standards of full conservation framing.

Ria's artistic energy fits like a glove with design and precision to this industry.  She opened her business in 1995. Over the years, she has been the recipient of multiple award winning designs which have been given recognition at a local and international level. 

 Bringing a background of experience as a technical illustrator for Parsons Engineering, Ria has mastered the services of French Matting, a traditional technique of inked lines, watercolor wash, and marbleized papers to create a perfect setting for just the right piece of art.

Many specialty services are offered, including fabric wrapped mats, painted mat panels and bevels, hand carved mat cutouts, and more.
