Barbara's Picture Framing

Heather Brae, Leebotwood 01694 751 703

Barbara is a lady that has helped me no end in getting a business up and running. She is wonderfully patient, I take hours and hours selecting mounts an frames to best show of my images not once as she ever hurried me along.

I find her work very reasonably priced and of an extremely high quality anyone who purchase my work is welcome to go along and see her for she will advise as to the way I might frame the image or if you wish even call me to come along an help you frame your image in the best way for the artwork.

I am not a person that has ever chosen a uniform colour mount and frame and used this format for every image I shoot. I'm afraid I feel that can ruin an image for they are all special and require a special treatment so that each piece of work becomes a real limited edition work of art.

I can recall arguing till I was so mad at college with my tutor for having to mount an entire exhibition in 3 inch white an 1 inch black frames on 5x7 images they just look so bleak an lost on a white wall stark hospital lit gallery all the life was killed in the images since that day I have tried to always mount an image for that specific image. This brings out some amazing colours an framing situations Ill admit.

But it also means that you will have a piece of art that no one else has for it has been framed an mounted exclusively for that piece. Quite often I will change my mind an mount the same piece differently but equally as dramatically and with equal care.

Obviously if you wish to have the piece mounted and framed in a specific way Barbara as all the facilities to accommodate most market trends.
