Greg from Retro Art loves recycling and upcycling. He is into art and mid-century design. Having spent so many years in the corporate world, it was time for a complete change and unleash his creative side. Greg lives in Hataitai and loves Wellington’s creative vibe.
Having seen so many good picture frames going to landfill or being discarded, just because the art was fading or ugly, Greg saw an opportunity to restore and add colourful art to rejuvinate them. Matching period pictures, original or adapted art to the reconditioned frames, he uses the old frame as much as possible along with new nails, fastenings, backings and tape. The result is a bright, modern piece of art that suits many decors from mid-century to modern.
