Memorabilia

 

Artweeks is all done, so back to the framing this week. This was a lovely idea for a piece of framing. A gentleman brought in this copy of 'True' by Spandau Ballet to be framed as a gift for his wife on their anniversary. It had been the first song they danced to at their wedding reception. He managed to pick up a copy of the single on EBay and we've framed it up for him :-)

Mirror mirror on the wall...

Here's the first of the gesso frames we're producing now. This one has been gilded in white gold, painted in off-white, limed and aged, then fitted with a beveled mirror. It's 19x23 inches and is on display in the shop now :-)

Painting commission

 

Here's a painting commission we did for a customer last week. They had moved from the house on the left to the one on the right and wanted a piece to commemorate this occasion. I paint commissions in many different styles, in this instance, swirling watercolour was the one chosen :-). Once the painting was finished, I framed it with a simple double mount and contemporary black moulding.

For further information on commissioning a piece, just email or call Graham :-)
