For any parent that has a child attend university, it is a proud moment and one that they can't wait to share with family and friends. It's not that they are showing off; it's more that they want to pass on the good news as it truly is a magnificent achievement. When looking back to the first day that they dropped their son or daughter off at school this was potentially a hope and aim for the future; and one that has now been realised.
At a time when everything seems to be dominated by digital media, picture and photo framing has stood as a timeless art form that helps to preserve special memories and emotions. They have such a special place in people’s lives and can certainly help to turn a frown upside down.
The multi-photo frame has massively increased in popularity in recent years; you may well have a number in your home. Here are some of the reasons why people choose a multi-photo frame over other types of picture frames.
The Benefits of Multi-Photo Frames
After deciding the style, size and shape of your picture frames and/or picture gallery walls, it is then a case of finding the ideal height to hang them. Personal preference should come into play here; after all, you are the one who has to live there and view the framed pieces. Bear in mind, as well, that not all rooms are the same; life would be rather boring if they were, and that for those rooms that could be described as being somewhat quirky, a little imagination may well be required.
Some people think that adding art to their home is likely to be way too expensive. But like most things in life, there are levels. It does not have to cost an arm and a leg, it’s simply a case of doing a fair amount of research and having a little creativity.
The functional use of wall space is underrated. The art and photos that adorn the room set the atmosphere. With gorgeous wall art in frames, hung with intention with consideration given to breathing space around the frames, rooms can be transformed almost instantly.

Artists have their preferences for materials to work with. Some like to paint on canvas, while others prefer to paint on primed hardboard as it’s less fragile and offers more leeway than canvas because the paints don’t automatically get soaked into the fabric. If you commission a piece of artwork, it’s common for the artist to ask your preference: canvas or board.
In an age when digital media is all the rage, has film photography become defunct? Not quite, but it’s getting there. One study in the US by a chain photo printer revealed that 92.5% of all the photos printed were taken from digital devices. Just 7.5% of the photos were snapped with a film camera. The majority of those are likely to be photos taken by film photography hobbyists.
Artists, pay close attention! Even if you graduated because if you did, you probably Mastered in an arts course. Not business advertising. And even if you did, the world’s forever changing. Consumers are more knowledgeable now, paying attention to local businesses and their practices for sustainability. People are interested in knowing if canvas paintings are done on hemp or linen-based canvas and supplied with FSC certified wood stretcher bars, or if you just did a painting on a canvas. The details sell your work.
There’s a huge downside to remote working that not all employers are addressing. The need for personalisation in workspaces (not places). Many corporations will have hired designers and consultants to help them create workspaces that help boost morale among employees, encourage socialisation in break rooms, stimulate creativity at desks, and increase productivity overall.
