Hours of Operation
Monday - Friday: 9am - 6pm
Saturday: 10am - 2pm
Closed on Sundays

We offer on-site-full-service, artistic picture framing with the best aesthetics in mind. Always showcasing everything we frame. We don’t exaggerate frame sizes, by claiming there are “standard rules" to follow in picture framing. These are mere tactics used to charge more for materials you probably don't need. Our goal is to achieve the best presentation for your work.

Héctor's Personal Approach To Framing Your Work

"I have personally been involved with the presentation of artwork for over twenty years. The proper suggestion regarding design and selection of a frame is critical to the success of the final piece, as well as the technique and materials used in the process. 

My prices stay very competitive and framing ranges from posters and diplomas, sport jerseys and memorabilia, family photos and mirrors, to original works of art. Allow me to show you the difference the right frame can make; the perfect frame for the right price. I have a huge selection in the shop and will be happy to give estimates, free of charge. 

All orders normally take about a week to finish, but can be finished sooner, if needed. I also am happy to offer on-site consultations at your home or business . 

Please, come visit and click here to see the eclectic display of artwork in the gallery. I love to share my passion for art!"

Héctor Moya - Powerful Hand

Santos From Puerto Rico

"The original thrust behind this art form is deeply rooted in religious faith and devotion; santeros carved these iconic images for devout followers to pray their wishes and gratitude upon as bridges to God...

In our continued appreciation for this tradition of old, the reality of its evolution must be embraced, lest we fail to acknowledge the known constant of change embedded in human development, including its culturally driven art forms. How long will this philosophy last?  I suspect that as long as the Santo speaks to us, as long as the piece emerges from the purest of places in the heart, tradition will remain, even as it evolves before our very eyes." 
- Héctor Puig
