Wow, those are nice woodblock prints. Yes, framing is crazy expensive - but it's worth it. A properly framed artwork lasts much longer because the changes in humidity and interior air pollution isn't affecting the artwork. I have a lot of unframed older artwork, and it makes me sad to see it aging because I couldn't afford to/didn't know how to protect it. It also makes me sad it's laying inside of a portfolio case, stuck in my closet... Now, I at least put all my artwork into a plastic sleeve or wrap it, and then store it in a portfolio in a dark, dry space. I wish I could meet more people with your level of appreciation for art.

-My guess is that there are a number of them in the Hubski community. Actually, it's not a guess. I should say that I do not spend enough time focusing on art as I would like. I frivolously spend money on other junk...
