Frame Style
Frames come in a variety of shapes, sizes and colours. From a natural wood finish to a smooth spray-painted style. The width of the visible frame will vary in sympathy with the size of the picture as too large a frame can swamp the image.
Moulding or coving can be added using a router or by means of different layers of wood. These more elaborate frames are more suited to works of art, such as paintings or collage.
I paint some frames in a mix of colours to draw out the thematic contrasts within a picture. For example, a rustic watercolour can draw in the eye by green-toning the wood.
