Fraktur art was practiced by the Pennsylvania Germans between the years of 1750 and 1850. Fraktur used naive and primitive images including angels, birds and tulips to decorate and adorn birth and marriage records as well as religious documents. The text on Fraktur usually consisted of words of wisdom, well wishings and prayers. My paintings include authentic images and text from Fraktur pieces of antiquity. This is a Fraktur piece that I never got around to framing (I am listing many). The second picture shows the actual full size paper that measures 9"x12", unless otherwise noted. You can tell from looking at the full size painting,where you would crop to frame the image, therefore getting a better idea of the size. I use watercolors and acrylics on watercolor paper . My paintings and hand-crafted decorative pillows are created to reflect the style, charm and simplicity of the time and to pay homage to Fraktur artists of antiquity. Fraktur paintings and pillows are a unique decorative item, great gift for Fraktur enthusiast as well as anyone with a taste for Old World charm.

E-mail me to let me know. I use either textured or smooth watercolor paper,
