Framing a watercolour
Posted: Thu 20 Aug, 2009 7:08 pm
I'll put my hands up to being more of a hobby framer (Night School/Self taught - I have a full time job) but buy watercolours and antique prints from auctions to frame and sell when my partner has a stall at Antique fairs. I bought a job lot of watercolours, and hidden at the back was a watercolour by Patrick Gordon Glennie, unframed but unmarked. It is a small one, 11"x9" called 'A scene on the Suffolk Coast' I want to do a good job on this,as his paintings fetch a good price at auctions, and would greatly appreciate some advice on mountboard colours, and type of frame. Thank you.
