Skill level: Beginners / Hobbyist Date: tbc Timings: 10am - 5pm This is an introduction to the basic principles of framing. During the day you will be taken through the whole process of designing, planning and making a frame for one of your own pictures. Although this is DIY framing, it is certainly not a "bodged" solution and you will amaze yourself at the quality and dynamic, creative style you can achieve starting from scratch. Through clear explanation, demonstration and your own "hands on" practice, you will learn about: 1. Identifying the key elements of a framed picture 2. How to cut a mount, using specialised tools, for the mounting of a picture 3. Some basic ways of attaching a picture to the mount 4. Cutting moulding and joining sections to create a frame for the mounted picture 5. finding out about simple options for adding a finish to the frame 6. cutting glass and backing board to fit the frame then assembling the framed picture, including sealing the picture back and adding a hanging cord You also find out about (and use) the specialist tools of the trade. This means that, if you decide to purchase some "kit", you will do so knowing that it won't stay in the box, unused for long!
