And sometimes on a Friday you take the G train down to Smith St., take a snap of the best subway station view of manhattan, head down to a factory, explore a bit and chat, sign some papers and a check and next thing you know you’re now part owner of a local company that you’ve supported in the lower east side and has expanded into BRKLYN. Museum quality frames and stretchers and artist swoon is a neighbor. So cool. And a huge opportunity to get myself a bit more involved in the world of art and the business of it. As long as I keep my fingers away from the machines, I should be good. Somehow the shark tank episodes have proved useful.

THE LIFE AND LINES OF ARIEL SHALLIT (SEO focused blogpost written for FramesandStretchers.com) for full post see hyperlink below.

Posted on November 26, 2016 by Frames and Stretchers 

Here at Frames and Stretchers we've had the pleasure of framing several pieces of Ariel Shallit's detailed work. Shallit is a New York based artist who utilizes black and white photos of celebrities and important historical figures in his work. His work draws a sharp contrast between the photographs and the colorful over-painting of lines that he draws on the photographs.

We stretched his canvas of Twiggy over a custom heavy duty stretcher for his solo show this past spring and we've continued working with him since then. Typically when we work with Ariel's canvases, we build custom heavy duty stretchers and stretch the canvases over them. The latest canvases we worked with have included photos of Mexican actor Gael Garcia Bernal. Other recently completed pieces feature model Cara Delvigne and boxer Muhammad Ali. He creates new and unseen impressions of these celebrities through his intense line work by displaying a visual representation of their personality. He deeply individualizes these celebrities personalities, showing an inner interpretation of them that we wouldn't usually see.

This is precisely what makes Shallit's work so appealing to others. In an interview with Astoria Arts Festival, he mentioned that he finds inspiration in many authors including Frédéric Chopin, Alexandre Dumas, Stanley Kubrick, and Maya Angelou. For more information about Ariel and to see his work please visit his website.

Fun night at the private view of the @affordableartfairnyc. Some really good pieces and quite fun seeing friends from Amsterdam and London galleries. And cool getting reminded that I’m a part business owner of a really good @framesandstretchers company. Didn’t come home with a piece this time thankfully but great to revisit the fair that got me started into this whole art collecting thing.

As it turns out, Santa left some presents in Brooklyn while I was away in Vegas. A pair of @kaws companions, my very first signed @maserart print and a @einesigns scarf. Yup, a ben eine. That’s even fancier than a Burberry. It’s a piece of art. The favorite framers @framesandstretchers sent a bottle as well which the companions are eyeing.
