These are the last of the pieces of artwork being frames for Artweeks (other than the ones I need to do for myself...). Some wonderful pastels by Joanne Parsons. We've coordinated the tray colours with the artwork and used a couple of different frames to finishes them off, really lovely pieces of artwork, Joanne is site 404, get along to see her if you can :-)

Very large photos

 

We've had a collection of amazing photos of the northern lights in to frame this week, these ones are 2 meters wide, so I've had lots of exercise shifting them about :-)

Floated print

 

Here's a wonderful print we had in for framing a couple of weeks ago. We floated it over a grey mount with matching side walls to keep it away from the glass and then framed it in a simple black moulding. There are lovely details all over the print, little creatures everywhere, really gorgeous :-)
