In custom framing, details matter!
Behind the Frame:
These heron paintings came from a magazine painting demo: the top image is the in-progress version, and the bottom is the finished piece.
Both were dry-mounted, meaning the paper was adhered to a sturdy backing board, but with one important difference - the top has white foam core behind it, while the bottom has black.
In the detail image, you can see how the writing on the back of the magazine page shows through with the white backing. The black backing helps hide that distraction and lets the finished heron shine.
These are the quiet little details that go into custom framing - things you may never need to think about, because we’re already thinking about them for you.
