It’s easy to say “my” art… but “my” art is not all mine. “My” art is not my creation alone. There are people I consider part of my team although they did not specifically sign-up for that role. They add their artistic touches, their expertise to my work, finishing it so it is ready for sale or display. If it were not for them, my art would not even exist:

Karl Gray of Gray’s Art and Framing who doesn’t just frame, but is kind enough to lend me his extensive expertise in color and design to bring out the best in my work.

At Roots Family Printing, Craig Collett uses such skill and care to print my photographic art so beautifully. Angie is there too to take in my pieces and help me decide exactly what i want to do with it.

. Nathan, a working artist in his own right, and the manager of printing at the UPS stores in Nampa, is there to bail me out ALL the time. He has been with me since i began frankie sims art.

And two fabulous artists and teachers, Candy Canning owner of Catalyst Arts Cooperative, and globally recognized watercolor artist Linda Aman, who i’m honored to call my mentors and friends.

No them, no frankie sims art.

thank you to them. I strongly recommend each and every one of them as professionals and as people if you ever are looking for their services. No, none of them pay me anything or pay me off in anyway to say these things.
