What does an empty picture frame represent?

A picture frame that is empty could be a symbol of many things. It all depends on the size, colour, profile, and location. A large home with an empty picture frame could indicate that the designer wants to highlight the cornices found in older mansions.

Is it possible to repaint picture frames

Once you have primed the frame you can paint it. You can also spray paint wooden picture frames. Spray paints that are oil-based are more effective and provide a better coverage. However, it is important to protect the surface you are painting and keep it well-ventilated.
