Frame Destination customer Richard Nitschke recently held a "hit-and-run" art show in San Antonio, Texas. We'd like to congratulate him on the show and his work, some of which are now part of the permanent archives of the National Library of France. His choice of materials includes Frame Destination's 8-ply mat and 502 wood frames. For large pieces, Richard often uses our stretcher bars.

All of the Richard's pieces in the exhibit are photographs of the Agave plant, which is native to Mexico and the southwest United States. These beautiful and formidable plants have an amazing number of uses, not the least of which is production of high quality tequila!

The Agave was described by American historian William H. Prescott in 1843:
