Framing
As every painting is a new challenge, I try and experiment : there is some works which goes in the dusbin.... well, no, I keep it as archives.
When one work is satisfying me, I have to finish it with a framing.I prefer it as simple as possible, in order to highlight the bare
painting.
I use natural wood frames, mostly, so, I can match the shade precisely with the ones of the painting.
We need a thick cardboard for the back, one bevelled mount, one glass board at the good size. The most of the time, I choose a plain mount : white or greyish brown. I don't like the colourful ones . It's only question on personal taste.
I add a fixing ring at the bottom, and then, I put every parts together, and assemble everything with care. I staple horizontaly in the thickness of the wood before finishing with gummed paper. Then, I stick the label on the cardboard, and I enclose eventually the signed certificate of authenticity. |
