Frames By Devora is a truly unique business, not only because of how the frames look but also because of the love and techniques used in creating them. Devora is a very special young woman who does not let any obstacle stand in her way. Devora was born missing the bridge between both halves of her brain and is medically fragile. Devora lives at home with her family and aged out of school several years ago only for her mom to find that there were no programs available for those like Devora who are abled in their own way. Turning to Devora's ability to wave her hands up and down as well as her love of tactile objects, her mom started adapting mittens with various tactile objects sewn on to them enabling Devora to hand paint artisan picture frames.
Painting started out as a great way to express herself. But after showcasing her work at local craft and art fairs, people began interested in buying them so Frames By Devora was born!
Each frame is painted in arcylic by hand, using a technique like no other. Devora uses mittens that have various textures sewn on them. Textures and patterns are created from sponges, KOOSH® balls, brush bristles and other crazy looking objects! When paint is layered, color upon color, a totally unique pattern is created.
Please visit Devora's website to learn more about Frames by Devora and their feature on ABC 7 Chicago News.
A note from Devora:
"This unique frame has been hand painted by me, with various textured items shown on to mittens to make the print marks you see. I am abled in my own special way and enjoy painting almost every day. Since I live at home with my family, there are no daily programs available for young adults like me.
Please enjoy this special work of art, it was made for you---
with LOVE from my heart. Devora"
Devora is forever grateful to the wonderful people who have helped her get her business off the ground and have supported her in this endeavor.
