I’m having a showing of art pieces and I realize after I committed to show that I need to put my paintings in frames.  First of all they look professional and cleaner, and give a more finished look product.  I was putting them in mat-board and protecting them with sleeves. It was OK but not very complimentary.  Now trying to use Frames, that is an issues.  You need the right color frame for the painting and the frame has to compliment the picture. To dark makes everything look dark, to light same problem, wrong color can turn people off or draw them into the work ” What to chose? that is the question.”
