I always buy a watercolor from a local street artist during my travels. I think the best way to make your collection cohesive is to frame them all in the same frame color/style (black or white thin wood frame with white mat for example). Sometimes a piece is not a standard US frame size, I just size up and use the mat to compensate for the difference. Amazon sells European sized frames as well which has been helpful for A4 paper, etc. My favorite frame source for quality for the price is IKEA.
