We are obsessed with our new frame samples from so fresh and funky and yet feel timeless.

Ps. They are even more impressive in person.

It's not every day that you have a 44 star American Flag in house! Thank you to our client Mary for bringing this beauty in for digital capture. Mary & I took turns steaming the wrinkles out ❤️

The US Coast Guard has named a cutter after her Great Great Grandfather John Patterson and it is to be commissioned in Portland 8/10/23, this is his burial flag. They would like to use an image of his flag in printed materials.

"Honoring the admission of Wyoming into the Union on July 10, 1890, the 44 Star American flag became the official flag on July 4th, 1891 and lasted for 5 years. Only 2 Presidents, Benjamin Harrison (1889-1893) and Grover Cleveland (1893-1897), served under this flag."

One more day to stop by the to see the artwork of the late Robert Solotaire. We were fortunate to know this sweet man and Jim has a nice story, feel free to ask him about it. The museum (which is beautiful in and of itself) has a framed collection and a handful of loose art for sale.

This is the piece I selected to purchase and most likely how I'll frame it. To show white around the image or to not....? I lean towards not.

Here's a gem that came into our shop. These started as 1" photos from a charm bracelet, to my surprise not only was I able to scan these small items and restore them, the prints when finished were brilliant!

Dear Friends,

It has been 30 years of great joy and let us be honest hardships too. Everything though, has brought us to where we are today, and we would not change a thing. We have met and worked with amazing people on unique and special projects, and we are fortunate to have beautiful space for our shop in Portland’s Bayside. Our work hangs in so many homes and businesses. We love hearing “I have a gallery of Grapheteria work in my home”! There is not a day we do not want to come to work because it is not work to us Grapheteria is our baby that is now 30 and I guess we should feel old or something, instead we feel immense gratitude for being able to continue to evolve, be creative and love what we do. Most important we want to thank our customers of the past 30 years many of which have become dear friends - THANK YOU each one of you – your support and trust in our work is our success! Honestly, we look forward to another 30 years of new experiences and making GREAT memories with you.

With great gratitude and blessings,
Jim and Lisa
