Hello from new framer in Brussels!
Posted: Mon 20 Jan, 2014 10:58 am
Hi there, Dean here, I have just started my own art and framing business in Tervuren just to the East of Brussels serving the quite significant expatriate community in and around Brussels. I have been a stay at home Dad for 10 years (safety engineer before that). I am an amateur artist and in a previous life studied and worked in graphic design in signmaking and newspaper industries.
I searched for ages to find something that was enjoyable to me, transferable (my wife works for big corporate so tend to move location every few years), could fit in with the family and hopefully turn a profit. I hope I've found it in framing, I think I have?!
I have just set up the workshop in December and now have a few orders coming in following stands at Christmas Bazaars and art exhibitions. More marketing to do and I have much to learn but so far so good...
I look forward to hearing from any fellow framers, I'm sure I will be needing to pick your collective brains on the occasional job!
Best wishes
Dean
