Framed Art Superstore to Move Again

New Hampshire's largest art gallery is the Framed Art Superstore in North Conway, NH. After nine years on North Conway's outlet shopping strip, the store moved into North Conway Village in October 2008.

Unfortunately, they were sub-letting the space from AJ Moss, who continued using the back space of the building. AJ Moss terminated their lease a year early leaving the art store without a lease.

Not willing to pay double the rent for the entire building, the art store is moving again, but still within North Conway Village. On May 1, 2009, the Framed Art Superstore will be open in what is has been Expressions Antiques for last twenty years.

The new space is a 2700 square foot historic house that lends itself well to an art gallery. The new store will also carry some of Expressions most popular items such as their custom dining room tables and antique steamer trunks.

The Framed Art Superstore has always been known for its canvas transfers, and has recently opened a new online art gallery called the Naked Wall Art Gallery offering better prices than art.com and other big Internet art companies, plus they always offer free shipping on every order, and ship from tax free New Hampshire. The same local company also operates the art gallery at the Met Coffeehouse in North Conway and Soyfire Candle - North Conway's Beanpod soy candle store.

The Framed Art Supertore will be having a store closing sale at hte current location in the Badger building through April 30th. If you're visiting North Conway, be sure to check out the deals!

Canvas Art... par for the course

More than just beauty, art serves a function in our homes. The art we choose can make us feel more energetic, or relaxed, more hopeful or ambitious .

So what art makes sense for these trying times? It is such a personal decision as to what you like but here are some hints as to why you might find certain pictures more appealing. If you want a room to be more relaxing, perhaps a piece with horizontal lines - could be a landscape or an abstract, but the direction and flow of the picture should be reclining. If you feel trapped in your life, you might be drawn to images with distant horizons.

Need more fun-time in your life? Wouldn't it be nice to smile everytime you walk past your new golf art!

Our need for simplicity is reinforced by the trend to go frame-less. Don't worry about the art looking un-finished - the edges are specially finished with gallery or museum edges for a clean professional look without the fuss and expense of a frame.

In spite of being called a Framed Art Store, our best selling art is unframed canvas art. Prints under glass cause glare in today's homes with open floor plans and lots of windows. Non-glare glass is expensive, so why not transfer the print to canvas which looks much better anyway!Perhaps more important is that with stress levels what they are in our complicated over-stimulated lives, our decorating needs to be easy and un-fussy.

Art without a frame is easier to buy, easier to match your decor, and easier to enjoy. The simplicity is pure genius. Just take away the frame, and enjoy the naked art, not the naked wall.

The reclining nude shown here by Pino is entitled "Evening Repose" - ideal relaxation lines for a master bedroom.
