The Christmas season is upon us. The most organised will have completed the preparations, and a cupboard filled with wrapped presents just waiting to be delivered.
Before the delivery rounds, there’s the decorating issue. No home is festive without the tree, the decorations, and the festive ornamentals.
Fancy something truly unique on your walls that is totally different from pictures but still resembles art? Try framing moss!
Did you know there are two art markets? Where you buy art from is a big factor in the price you pay. Not only that but what you are paying for.
Popular artists sometimes collaborate with publishing houses for marketing assistance. One way they do that is to run a strict number of limited-edition prints. These are generally hand signed by the artist and include a Certificate of Authenticity (CoA).
Have you spotted an art print you would like to buy, then noticed the different pricing options? Rolled print, framed print, or a hand-embellished print - the price difference can be staggering. As an example, a rolled print may be priced at £284.99. Add a frame and the price jumps to £498.99.
There are a variety of gold leaf frames on the market. They also go by the name gilt frames because it is frame guilders that make them using an intricate process. The price is an indicator of quality. Genuine gold leaf frames use genuine gold ranging in quality from 12CT to 23.75CT.
For businesses with customers walking around premises able to take notice of poster displays on your walls, poster advertising is an effective way to promote your events, products, and additional services to customers.
The bigger your premises, the more posters that could be effective.
Canvas prints can be displayed framed or unframed. For some, the unframed display can feel like the print is somewhat incomplete.
How times are changing! Since 1986, The Picture Gallery has grown leaps and bounds and altered course numerous times as the print and framing industry transitioned through change.
Events photography is not the easiest gig. Professionals turn up with entire camera kits ready for anything the day might throw at them.
Not everyone has all the gear, and sometimes, the gadgets and filters actually distract from what could become terrific art.
