Artwork is one of the most challenging things to frame, especially when most artists don’t offer it as part of the package. Many times, artists prefer that their work be “unfinished” because it adds rustic aspects to the peice. Plus, they may not want to take the time (and money) to add a frame because it takes a lot of effort to choose something that works with the overall piece.
Modern art framing is still an option for those who want to protect the artwork and hang it correctly on their walls. If your piece wasn’t framed when you bought it, you need to go to a professional framer who can help you choose the most appropriate options.
Modern art framing takes a lot of consideration because you have to focus on each aspect. You may have one part of the artwork that is considered the focal point, so you may want to consider colours that complement that part. However, you may want something plain or neutral in colour to ensure that the artwork itself pops and becomes the focal point. You’ll also want to consider the frame design, as some are very ornate and some are plain. The plain versions work well when the artwork is “busy,” while ornate options work well for smaller pieces.
At Amarisco Framing & Mounting, they understand your frustration. Whether you’re an artist who knows that people are more inclined to buy your artwork when it’s framed, or you’re an individual who already purchased an unframed piece, you’ll find that they can help you. Plus, artists will love the fact that they offer weekly pick-up/delivery for free so that you can focus more on creating and less on getting the work framed. Modern art framing is considered essential by many purveyors, so it makes sense to consider the frames, as well.
