Learn the basic principles of picture framing with Joe, the Yorkshire Framer.
This workshop will teach you how to present your artwork, with a focus on correctly mounting paper work as well as how to customise without causing problems.
By the end of the session you will take home a completed frame and the knowledge and skills to produce more at home!
The session will involve:
Drawing two artworks on A4 paper
An introduction to the basics of picture framing.
Measuring your mounts for existing frames- proportions and scale.
How to safely mount paper artwork in a mountboard
How to ‘float mount’ paper artwork on a mountboard
Decorating frames and mountboards to help emphasise elements of the artwork.
Piecing a frame together, proper techniques and cleaning.
Closing the frame, taping the back, how to choose which hanging hardware
Ending with a Q and A discussion
Participants must be over 16 and have good eyesight and hand dexterity.
Please don’t bring existing artwork to frame as the session timings don’t allow for custom mounting and adjustments. On completion of the workshop you’ll have all the skills needed to produce your own frames at home!
