I love it... I doubt that dude would ever agree to meet anyone in person and talk like that. Many of us will be at the National though if I am wrong

I'll be at the National and eager to meet anyone that is willing.

Will do.

Mark, I love the way you took pictures of the paintings arrival. LOL I did the same thing when I bought my guitars. As I have no children and Gibson and Martin guitars are expensive, I took photos like yours when they arrived and at different stages of unwrapping. Like the birth of a child LOL.

I am very proud to own a few Kreindlers, and not shy about sharing, either.

When I pull these paintings from the shipped boxes, I don't give much thought initially to the frame/not to frame question. My preference, instead, is to hang 'em up somewhere where I know I will see them with some regularity, and then, with the Mrs.'s permission and much due diligence, frame those I decide to frame.

I really don't put much thought into it. Hanging "naked" on the canvas, as they are, suits me just fine. A silver/gold mat/frame on the Mathewson I think helps accentuate those same tones in the jersey. But again, it would look just as good "naked".

Oh, and I never consider anything I post here to be "showing off", but rather, sharing what I own with those that would appreciate it. If you don't appreciate it, then you shouldn't be on this board.

Here are some examples:

(no idea why some of these are showing up rotated..)

I'd leave it unframed. IMO unframed draws complete attention to the painting. Pure raw beauty. His stuff rocks! Enjoy. BB

Great stuff, jacksons! Thanks for sharing.

Yeah I'd have to say unframed really pops when its on a solid color wall. I have a store bought print on canvas that was meant to be unframed and it does look great on a flat painted wall.

Jacksons,

Many thanks for your thoughts and pictures of your terrific Kreindler trio of paintings- wow!

I must say that I like the way that they look both framed and unframed. I do think that the Matty looks spectacular framed on your cherry wood wall. The unframed paintings look terrific as well. Congrats!

Those paintings are amazing, and that Johnny V. is incredible. Great to have and great to share, regardless of haters.

Jacksons,
Before, when you only had the Matty, I didn't like you. Now with three I really hate you.

How big is that Ruth? It looks spectacular!

Damn, I wish I had the money for one or two more. I have some great ideas for paintings.

Maybe someday soon!

Best,
Mark

The finish work in the room that these hang is fantastic. You have great taste.

The frame on the Mathewson is brilliant. I love it.

that ruth painting is incredible! kreindler s work really made me realize how easily one can get lost in a painting. its like an episode of "night gallery" where I swear if I look long enough, I see movement.
mark, I hvent given up on hal chase but I found a killer cobb I would want first. I'll send you a pic later as I can't post pics on here from my phone
