The frames are just beautiful and reasonably priced. The service was top notch and there was some room to accommodate my unrealistic deadlines. I have to say that I was so impressed with how much care and respect was shown in framing artwork. I will be a repeat client.

I hired Brian to frame a piece of art for me. I was in Chicago so shipped it to him in Palm Springs where I would be coming soon.Working virtually together was wonderful. Brian kept me in the loop with every decision, collaborating to determine the best frame and sending me pictures of possible frames and the progress. His artistic eye, obvious knowledge base and professionalism was evident. He knows art and knows what frame will best fit the piece. I couldn't have been more pleased with the results. I will no doubt use him again as I decorate my home in Palm Springs.

What a pleasure to work with Brian. His suggestions about how to frame my art were spot on and he couldn't be nicer. My car was in the shop and went above and beyond to deliver my art to me!! This place is amazing.

I was a customer of the Portland location which has re-located to Palm Springs. I was always very happy with the service there. Recently, I wanted to frame a new piece to match a previous piece that was done at the Portland location. I contacted the Palm Springs gallery looking for information about the moulding. Brian responded almost immediately, had all of the information that I needed to duplicate the frame and even referred me to other galleries in Portland that stocked the moulding and could help with the construction. This is what I value in a business - not only a good product and service while I am making a purchase but also help and support after the fact. I can whole-heartedly recommend Brian Marki FA&F.

I have a wonderful piece of art, my first real original, that I recently purchased, and was not sitting on the wall correctly. It was old-ish, but had been in storage for quite some time. I heard a bang one night, and couldn't figure out what it was until I looked at my painting. A screw that was holding the framing together had burst out of the frame, and the art was now not sitting well on the wall (its left bottom corner was not flush with the wall.) I took it to Brian Marki and he explained to me that it was warped due to shrinkage. He and his staff took the time to explain to me that the only way it could be fixed was to take it off of its current backing and refix it to one that was acclimated to the desert, and that they could not accept liability to do that. While this doesn't seem like the best outcome, I was grateful to them for making me understand what the problem was, at no charge. When I end up purchasing more originals that need framing, they will be my go-to options. They're honest, and understanding, and Brian has over 40 years in the biz. Your art is in good hand with his company.

The world needs more people like Brian Marki. My daughter and I dropped a canvas off for custom framing this morning. I happened to mention that we were sad to be leaving the desert as I was on my way to the airport to fly out for a few weeks. We left the shop, ran a few errands and I was dropped off at PSP about an hour later. I checked a bag at the United counter and when I turned to walk towards security, I heard a man say, "there you are". It was Brian Marki holding my cell phone which I had unknowingly left behind at his gallery. This man left his thriving business to take a random shot at helping someone out. My travel day would have been disastrous without his good act. Truly a gentleman and thoughtful human being. Who wouldn't want to do business with such a solid person and professional? Brian did do a custom frame project for us a year prior and the work was excellent but this awesome personal experience had to be shared. The world would be a better place with more people like Brian. Total class act!

Adding a new piece of art takes a lot of consideration. Framing it correctly for the right impact, takes even more! Brian and Tom made it easy for me to pick out frames that gave my pieces the impact I wanted.
