What should I put in this frame?

| LOVE anything Seashell~Dated 1904 |
I recently was
Out of Town and found this little treasure of a frame. Because I am infatuated with the sea and everything in it, I just had to buy it. My intention is to
ReSell it…hm. I guess we shall see.
As I stated in an earlier post, I have begun to paint for a small retail show that is located in Buck's County area, PA. This piece will go to that event. If you want tickets, I have them. Simply fill out the form to the right and I will mail them, no strings attached. This is a beautiful professional ONE-of-a- KIND type show. The artists are all over the top incredibly talented.
Back to my frame…I am thinking mermaid.

The color tones will match this print, I am thinking!
The rich tones along the bottom really add a lot of depth to this painting. I don't know if I ever explained to anyone my process fully. What I do is paint layer upon layer. Each layer enhances (not covers) the previous layer. I bring out the tones that I happen to find appealing for each painting. I really play it by ear…
One more notable thing about this frame is the back. Check this out!

If you know anything about this frame and care to share it, please do. My intention is to put a mermaid in it. It will be a small painting and take some time. Many times small things are as time-consuming as large things due to the size of the bristles in the brush. FYI. Stay tuned to see what the final piece looks like. I am not sure when it will be posted, but it will find it's way to this blog!
Enjoy!
