Many picture frame mouldings are available in unfinished plain wood and these we can apply our own finishes to.
The painting below is by local artist Vanda Richards and is an oil on board approx. 160mm x 330mm.
The frame is made up of two frames one inside the other. The inner frame (or liner) is a simple 15mm wide cushion moulding which has been painted a stone colour. The outer frame which has a more complex profile has been painted clay red, overpainted with black and rubbed back very slightly to reveal the red. After this a wash of burnt umber was applied and then a dark oak wax was applied and buffed.
The finished frame gives a classic look which we believe enhances the painting without taking anything away from it.

ReplyDeletePicture frames help you to restore pictures for a long time. We can remember our late grandparents by looking at their pictures. People love to place family photographs in their homes. Couples place their wedding ceremony photographs in their bedrooms.For More information Please Visit Here:picture framing supplier in Canada.
