How should I frame my artwork?
I made a blogpost on how to frame your giclee art print, you can read it here. Always frame your giclees behind glass and with a matt to ensure its longevity.
For original work I’d always recommend working with a professional framer. I can always make recommendations based on a specific piece of art and I have framed my work in several different styles over the years that I can show you (just ask!). Things to keep in mind are:
Behind glass, no glass, or even museum glass?
A black frame always works, but are there colours that fit and elevate the painting?
For works on paper: do you want to keep the edges visible (floating frame!) or would you prefer a matt?
You can go crazy with framing but it can also become quite costly. Decide on a realistic budget and go from there. Also, listen to the framer’s advice, they’ve seen it all ;)
