Framing Notes

Boy, that was a quick wait. My drawing teacher came in rather fast, so I didn't have to wait long. I ended up helping her bring in everyone else's portfolio. Afterwards, I asked her for some framing advice. This is what she had to say:

For the drawings, keep to a cheap and simple wood frame. Helps bring out the drawing and lines. Best kind are ones without any kind of beveling. Staining is okay provided cut is simple.

For Madonna and Child piece from 2D, float drawing on a matte. Use a think frame. Two inches at the most. Should look a little like a shadow box. Do not cut windows in matte board. Float all eight pieces on one frame.

Boy, this is going to be expensive!
