Phaethon
Phaeton and the Swan is a Roman myth where Phaeton, the son of Helios, was attracted to men. As Phaeton lost control of the sun chariot, endangering the world, the gods punished him. Struck down and transformed into an insect, Phaeton found solace in the Swan, his lover and companion. Their passionate love provided support and understanding. The Swan became Phaeton's source of strength, helping him face his challenges. This tale highlights acceptance and the power of love, regardless of sexual orientation. It explores how connections can aid in overcoming adversity and finding inner strength.
How to Frame Your Artwork
Works on paper (drawings / prints on paper)
I ship works on paper unframed. Ready-made frames are easy to find (e.g., IKEA’s classic RIBBA). Most include a white mat (mount) that lets the artwork “breathe.”
- Choose white or black frames/mats to suit your space.
- Black mats usually need to be purchased separately.
- You can echo a color from the piece (e.g., a subtle green frame) or pick an ornate wooden frame for a more classic/gothic interior.
Canvas paintings
Canvases are usually displayed without an outer frame—the edges are painted as a continuation of the image for a clean, contemporary look.
If you prefer a frame, choose an open (floater) frame: it mounts from behind and leaves a slim gap around the canvas, adding visual “air” without covering the composition.
Art prints
Many of my prints are offered already framed and marked on the product page as “Framed Print.” In that case, no extra framing is needed.
I also offer unframed prints at a lower price—perfect if you want to choose your own frame. For unframed options, standard ready-made frames (like IKEA RIBBA) work well; canvas prints pair beautifully with floater frames. Please check each listing’s details for size and finish.
