What You Will Learn?
- Framing artwork can be so overwhelming. In this series (more classes to come!) on framing 2-D art, we start with the very basics on why you need a mat and a frame in the first place and how they make your artwork look best without spending a ton of money. I go over United States standard frame and mat sizes and provide a guide for standards outside of the US in the resources tab. I will help you up-level a store-bought frame with 3 ways to best use the mat inside so you can inexpensively make your art stand out. This is a great class for the novice artist or framer who has little to no experience with framing a 2-D piece of art. It is also great for artists that wish to make a bigger impact by selling their work pre-framed..
