I have been framing the majority of my artwork with Phillip and Edward since the mid-1990’S. I appreciate their down to earth style and the expertise they offer in framing. I also like the choice of frames available and the excellent pricing. I can highly recommend this “dynamic duo” for your framing needs. Peter Soulsby

I’d highly recommend Modern Painting and Framing — they are a courteous, caring and skilled family-owned business that really meets my needs, the needs of my collectors and the needs of other Ottawa artists. Barbara Ursel

Artist, www.barbaraursel.com

It is a pleasure working this Philip and Ed, whether trying to decide on a frame or to pick up extra hardware. Even when my ‘go to’ frame has been discontinued the Chans seem to be able to find a replacement. They work hard for me and I always leave with a smile. Judi Miller
