hi steve!
Am new myself! One idea that I had is take a stall at local craft fairs showing as much of a range of your work as possible. There I have met and networked with lots of local artists, photographers and of course the buying public. I just buy some prints or posters to frame.
Oh and you ...

thank you robo framer! you must be due some sort of framing knighthood!

HI all
I have a watercolour to frame that has been crumpled for a 3d effect. Great eh? Plan is to use spacers so glass doesnt flatten it but mount wont really work with this. How could i attach to mountboard or even "stick" without spoiling the effect?
all the best

39 TO 82. hAVE FOUND A VERY SIMPLE LITTLE HOMEMADE PROGRAM ON EBAY FOR SALE FOR 14.99. A FRAMER DEVELOPED IT HIMSELF TO USE AND THEN DECIDED TO SELL IT! ITS FANTASTIC FOR ME, HAVING JUST STARTED. DOES INVOICES, WORKSHOP NOTES, CASH FLOWS ETC. ITS MAKING ME (A PENCIL AND PAPER TYPE OF PERSON) LOOK ...

RITE!!!!!!!!! Am planning to screw the damn thing into a extra deep rebated moulding! Roboframer I am totally with you on this one but I cant pass up this opportunity! Am away to lie down in a darkened room!

sounds a bit of a nightmare! any other ideas? cos not liking the sound of this.

hi
just got a commission from an artist to frame a canvas. I am so excited because i feel my business has been launched. she does not want a box frame but she does want the sides of the canvas to be hidden (3.5cm) and some sort of front edge! i was wondering what all you people thought about this ...
