Choosing A Frame Style

Whether you choose a Readymade Frame, Pre-Cut Frame or Custom Frame, there are 3 framing styles you can achieve...

VIEW GALLERY

Traditional

A framing classic that has stood the test of time, traditional frames have glass (or plexi) to protect the enclosed artwork, photograph, or certificate from dust and particles in the environment. Add a mat to the frame to give a finished appearance. Traditional picture frames come in a range of styles from casual to formal, making them a great choice for display in galleries and museums, at home, or in other professional settings. Available in wood, metal, or veneer.

Shadow Box

When it comes to depth, shadow box frames make space to showcase! Risers installed inside the moulding of the frame raise the glass away from the backing, allowing for more space and depth (a “box”) within the frame. The additional depth allows artwork to be framed with a mat, from edge-to-edge or float-mounted. Available in wood.

Floating Canvas

This minimal style of frame, with its off-set or “stepped” moulding, creates a subtle shadow around works on canvas, adding dimension to the artwork and giving it the appearance that it is “floating” within the frame. These frames allow the viewer's attention to rest on the artwork, while giving it a polished, professional look. Available in wood, metal, or veneer.

Finishing with A Frame

For many artists, a frame is a final step; the last touch of polish before it is presented to the world. Finishing with a frame allows artists to present themselves in a more professional manner and increase the value of their artwork.

In this video, we visit the studio of North Vancouver artists Dene Croft and Kiff Holland for their insights on the importance and value of framing their artwork, and how they go about it.
