Introduction Course

Time 10am – 4:00pm

Cost £180

The Introduction to Framing Course provides you with an in-depth beginner’s course.

During the introduction to picture framing course you will be taken through the whole process of planning and designing your picture. You will be shown how to measure your picture and fill out a plan, how to bevel cut the mountboard, make the oak picture frame, cut the glass and the final assembling of the picture to conservation standards.

The day will consist of a number of demonstrations of each stage of the framing process. Participants will be invited to take part in each demonstration, using each tool in turn and gaining hands-on experience of using the equipment. There will be plenty of time during the day to practice so you will leave the course with the skills to produce your own pictures at home.

Please bring a photograph measuring 6inch x 8inch to frame during the course. Alternatively, if you prefer, you can choose a stock photo from those I have available when you arrive.

The planning stage (part A) the measurement, size and dimension’s

Canvas Floating Frame Course

Time 10am – 4pm

Cost £160

This training course is designed for people who would like to learn how to make floating frames for canvas pictures that have already been stretched over a wooden

stretcher frame. The tray frames are designed to have a 3mm shadow gap between the canvas and the frame. This gap will give the impression that the canvas is floating inside the frame.

On this course you will learn how to:

Measure your picture and fill out a worksheet plan.

Transfer the measurements onto the tray frame.

Mitre cut the tray frame

Glue and V-Nail the tray frame.

Advice on additional steps on painting the frame.

Assemble the frame to complete your picture.

You will need to bring a stretched canvas or canvas board picture to frame for this course. Do let me know before the course whether it is a stretched canvas or a canvas board.

The material costs are based on one three-meter length of frame so the maximum size of picture that can be accommodated is 24 inches by 30 inches (610mm by 762mm). Larger sizes can be accommodated on the course however they will need two three-meter lengths of frame and so the material costs will be higher.

On this course you will construct a tray frame and have plenty of time to practice. Please let me know the size of your canvas picture, in millimetres that you would like to frame so that I can work out the length of the tray frame required.

Tray frames on this course are made from obeche wood which will suit most pictures. Other pictures may will look better in a painted black or white frame, in fact any colour that you have in mind. While your frame is waiting for the glue to dry you will be given more information about tray frame painting and advice on where you can buy the paint locally.
