Framing Process

Preserve & Enhance Your Art With Custom Framing

Choosing the perfect frame

When custom art framing is done properly, it not only protects your prized artwork, but also adds elements of your own unique style. 

Frames have varied textures, colors, and shapes. Our framing designer will walk you through the custom-art framing process, helping you understand the options, choose the material, decide on a mat, and determine how best to mount the art on your wall.

Frame Materials

What colors, tones, and textures would enhance the look and feel of your artwork?  Will an understated look make the artwork pop or should the frame make as much of a statement as the artwork? Our skilled craftspeople will work with you ro determine  which frame best compliments the art.We take into consideration not just your style, but the climate and light conditions of the finished piece’s final destination so we can ensure its longevity. 

 

Matting, Glass & Mounting

Simply put, what’s around and behind your artwork? Do you have a painting or photograph that can take up the whole frame or are you creating a custom design for sports memorabilia, wedding decor, or various photos?

When thinking about matting your artwork, the color, mood, and texture of the matting material can change the feel of the piece. The other consideration is which glass will best protect your art from the elements. We carry museum-quality glass materials to provide protection and clarity. 

Mounting is the final piece of the puzzle – where art meets science and physics. We work to ensure that your art is protected and safely mounted in your home, office, or gallery. From dry mounting to DiBond, face mounting to Sintra, the options can be overwhelming. Our team will help guide you to the option that works best for you.
