Meet our Expert Framers

CASS McKAY 
McKay Bricker Framing and Gallery was Cass' dream 33 years ago. She's a CPF (Certified Picture Framer) and has designed thousands of amazing framed pieces found all over NE Ohio and beyond. Cass has a loyal following of customers who look to her for design expertise with their treasured art pieces. You'll find her behind the design counter mid week and during the weekends. We always have CPF framers on site, but if you want to have Cass work with you, please call ahead to make sure she will be around. When she's not in the shop, Cass loves to walk and you might see her around town with her little pup or picking up sparkly things she intends to use in art pieces.

JENNIFER EDDY 
If you have anything in mind you'd like to frame, Jennifer our head framer and a CPF (Certified Picture Framer,) has created thousands of spectacular pieces. Jen's been custom framing for 16 years and hasn't met a project she couldn't beautifully complete. Her work is all over NE Ohio and one piece even ended up for auction at Sotheby's. (Don't underestimate what a little frame shop in Kent, Ohio can create for you.) Jen loves working with artifacts whether an Egyptian amulet or wedding bouquet or a collection of antique locks and keys. Her attention to detail cannot be rivaled and she's totally committed to creating artwork you will love forever. Jen is around during weekdays. Ask to meet her and get her framing ideas. You won't be disappointed! When Jen isn't working, you might find her creating lovely quilts, oil paintings of cows and birds, or enjoying her mischievous cats. Jen is also the artist known for her famous clay black squirrels -- collectors items for many who love Kent, Ohio!

MARYANN WILLOUGHBY
Our newest CPF (Certified Picture Framer), MaryAnn has been highly motivated to become a detailed, excellent framer over her past few years working under Jen Eddy at the shop. She's professionally trained as an architect and as an avid knitter, is great with design and color usage. MaryAnn will blow your socks off with creative and  wonderful framing options. You'll find her at the shop mostly on weekdays and occasionally on weekends. MaryAnn has party animal cats who chase her trails of yarn when she's knitting and snuggle when she's reading. Ask her about her book challenge for the year!

JACK NETHING
You've likely seen Jack around Kent and vicinity over the years. He's well known and has an awesome sense of design and loyal followers who love his framing choices. Even those of us who work at the shop love seeing what he will come up with when customers bring in art from their travels or pieces they have stitched or something their grandchildren drew. He might surprise you with his choices and add some quality touches you've never considered before. Jack is also the master mind behind the store displays. His out of the box thinking is applied not only to framing design, but details in our shop display. Jack is around on Mondays and Fridays, but you can call to set an appointment for other times. When he's not at the shop, you might see him attending his grandkid's performances.

JILL WOLFORD
A woman of many talents, Jill works with Jen and MaryAnn to frame your art pieces, but also keeps the shop running with business decisions behind the scenes. She's a woman who knows numbers and like the rest of us, pays attention to details. With framing it's all about the details. You can find Jill in the shop on weekdays and occasionally on weekends. Jill is a stained glass artist as well as a professional framer. She will get just as excited about your artwork as you are! When she's not at work, she can be found jetting off to NYC or Europe to meet up with her family and cute granddaughter.

KERI DELCOS
With over ten years of framing expertise, Keri has recently joined our team of professional picture framers. Her skills are fine tuned for all dimensions of framing, but she really enjoys working with oil paintings and stretching canvases. Generally you can reach Keri at the shop Monday, Wednesday, Thursday and Saturday. Call first to set an appointment if you're a fan of her design choices! When not working, she enjoys beach vacations and volunteering for the Humane Society of Greater Akron.

CHARLOTTE CARVER 
Charlotte will cheerfully greet you at the shop during weekends. She's training under Jen Eddy to add framing to her myriad skills and she will help you design beautiful framed pieces. Charlotte is our social media point person, so if you're liking our Facebook posts, you can thank her for sharing her artistic flare with the world! She will help you choose just the right gift for anyone on your list and offer a warm welcome when you visit McKay Bricker on weekends. Charlotte lovingly tends to little people during the weekdays and they like her almost as much as we do.

ANDI SCHRADER
Having trained under Jen Eddy as a professional framer, Andi loves working with customers to design beloved pieces. That is, on the rare occasion she's in the shop these days. She travels much of the time, but brings back ideas from all over the world for ways we can improve the shop and sources for delightful gifts and cards. She's an artist who sells her ceramics, upcycled wool creations and mixed media art in the shop from time to time. She's also working behind the scenes on marketing, so if you have ideas, please send them through the shop!
