Hi Antti! Missed being there ... looks like you all had a wonderful time. Thanks for posting so many photos... I have been waiting for someone to do so. Good work on that "dual" painting you did with ... was it Leon?

Arto Isotalo said...

Mahtavaa Antti, hienoja maalauksia! Ja onnittelut palkinnosta!

Johan said...

Hi Antti,

Amazing collection of work all together!

Just a question: how doe that work with the framing? Do you guys take your frames with you from home to the AITO festival or do you buy them in Wexford? In the case of the latter, how do you know what sizez your panels can be?
Just wondering :)

Gonna have another look at those pictures... really nice!

Antti Rautiola said...

Thanks guys!

Marsha:
Thank you. We sure had a lot of fun and the painting I did together with Leon Holmes, was one of the highlights of my visit. I hope to see you guys again sometime.
Take care and please tell my greetings to Haywood. :)

Johan:
You can bring your own frames, but the - Spectrum Art & Framing - has a good selection of frames. I always use their expertise/services when chosing a frame while I am in there.

Antti Rautiola said...

Oh and yes, they will make custom frames in any size of canvases or panels.

Johan said...

Thank you, Antti, for taking the time to reply.

One day I will make it to Wexford!
