Framing Work

Wednesday - Exhibition day

Before going to IKEA I had already researched into the sizes of the frames and mounts. I knew that the mounts in the frames I wanted would be too small so I rung Abdul the framer from Tilt on Saturday to ask if he would be able to crop mounts and at what price. He said just bring them around with the artwork to do it. Costing at £4.99 per mount. 

Framing last pieces of work. We went to IKEA Monday to get the frames but we couldn't get the mounts cropped until today because Abdul was busy yesterday. Our mounts needed to be cropped to the least amount of overlap.

A1 paper size: (w)59.4 x(h)84.1cm

The mount size was:
(w)49 x(h)69cm

Me and a friend worked together because it would make framing these large frames easier. This included taking off the board at the back, wiping away any dirt, taping artwork to the mount, signing and dating, putting the mount and board back into the frames and closing them.
