Thanks for visiting my website - it gives you just a hint of the wonderful collection of art and framing that I have on display in my gallery at Varsity Lakes. Feel free to email me if you have any questions, but I'd much rather you come in a browse around the gallery - no obligation to buy.
I hope to see you soon - Brenden
Framing
With no false modesty, I know I have a great eye for colour, which means I can help clients select mat and framing pieces that will enhance the beauty of their framed items. After many years of helping thousands of clients, I know I can advise anyone on the perfect framing combination.
Frame and mat board samples are on display from all the best suppliers.
Luke, James and Scott, who have all been framing for over 20 years, do most of my handcrafted framing work. Their work is very high quality, - whether framing a simple print, or displaying a selection of memorabilia, a sporting outfit or original artwork.
There are so many framers providing specialist services on the Gold Coast, it is hard to know who to trust with your treasured memories, craft and artworks, our artisan-style service - style and workmanship - ensures your satisfaction.
Fine Art, Prints and Decorator Art
I always keep a selection of framed prints on display, or you can sit and browse through print catalogues to find prints to suit your specific interior design needs. Alternatively ask me to recommend websites so you can “shop from home” at your leisure. You can waste hours driving around hoping to find the perfect framed print for a particular spot. It costs no more to have a print framed just for you, exactly for that space you have.
I source my artists from around Australia, including collectable fine art from established artists as well as some up and coming ones to watch. I can commission artists to create the perfect artwork to suit your home, office or display space.
Frederic Berjot is one of Australia's finest sculptors, and I am thrilled to be showing his works in the gallery at the moment. These pieces are all on show, but I can help clients access Frederic's complete portfolio, so please call in and talk to me about Frederic's sculptures.
I know how hard it can be to find the perfect artwork to match an interior decor item - a lounge suite, bedspread or individual designer item - particularly when you are trying to keep the budget down. My decorator artists can create well priced original art to complement your design and colour scheme.
I keep a large selection framed prints on display or you can sit and browse through print catalogues to find prints to suit your specific interior design needs.
Mirrors
Made to order mirrors are one of my “Secret Specialities”. Don’t order a mirror before you talk to me – I have some invaluable tips to avoid disappointment later, when it is too late. Because I have made hundreds of mirrors for clients, I have a few standard questions I always ask you before I manufacture a mirror just for you, which will make your mirror perfect for your specific situation. And I always have a range of imported mirrors on display in the mirror room, from very simple to ornate designer pieces.
Interior design advice
If my clients need design advice beyond my framing and art services, I am able to recommend a number of interior designers, with no obligation.
Picture hanging
I can also recommend several professional picture hangers, who can pick up finished artworks from me and deliver to you if needed.
Photography
In addition to his skill as a framer, Luke Sullivan is also a professional photographer. He is available for weddings, portrait sittings, surf / beach photos, pets, cars, etc. Luke can print photographs on canvas or paper to any size. A large selection of his work is available here to view on computer or in catalogues. Luke can also offer to print your photos, call for an appointment to discuss your needs.

Many friends convinced me to open my own gallery and framing shop so I could do things my way and enjoy my retirement years doing what I love. I've been in the art and framing business for 20 years, and I am uniquely placed to provide a range of cost effective services to my clients.
I'm still cheeky and I'm still passionate about providing the best framing and art services to all my clients. But mostly, I'm still fun - so where else could you possibly want to go! The gallery space is huge - 360 square metres, with a very relaxed and stress free ambience.
I can't believe I'm coming up for my fifth anniversary here! I have had some ups and downs over those years, but I am still enjoying the time I spend with old and new clients, hearing about your travels, seeing new family members, and keeping up with your artistic endeavours.
I look forward to continuing to provide all my clients with the very best framing and art service on the Gold Coast.
