When in doubt, go bigger than you think. The art, including any frame, should fill about ⅔ the width of the furniture beneath it. Sizes listed are the photograph itself; framed paper prints, with a 2" mat and frame, are about 3–5" larger in each direction.

Framed prints arrive ready to hang
Framed paper prints are matted with a 2" white mat and protected by non-glare acrylic, so the image stays clear without reflections from windows or lights. Acrylic is lighter and safer to ship than glass, and every framed print arrives with hanging hardware already attached.
MetalPrints with a float mount or frame also arrive ready to hang.

About this photograph
Paia, Maui's north shore surf town, features this distinctive surfboard fence—a collection of retired boards repurposed as colorful boundary markers. The boards show years of use: sun-faded graphics, ding repairs, wax residue, the authentic wear that comes from actual surfing rather than decorative props.
What makes this work compositionally is the density and variety—different shapes (longboards, shortboards, fish designs), varied color schemes, and the vertical rhythm created by boards standing on their tails. The lush tropical vegetation behind provides contrast, the greens emphasizing the boards' bright yellows, blues, oranges, and reds.
Paia has maintained its surf culture character despite Maui's development, and installations like this fence reflect that identity—functional (it does mark a boundary) but playful, using surfing's material culture as folk art. Each board represents someone's ocean sessions, now retired from the waves but still part of the community's visual landscape.
Colorful retired surfboards create vibrant folk art fence embodying Paia's authentic surf town character.
