Framing unstretched canvas allows the buyer to control the final presentation of the artwork. Here are some important points to consider:

Customization: You can choose the frame style, color, and material that best suits your space.
Versatility: Unstretched canvases can be easily transported and displayed in various ways.

It is advisable to seek out a professional framer in your region to ensure the best results. A professional can provide:

Expert Advice: Guidance on the best framing options for your specific piece.
Quality Materials: Access to high-quality frames and mounting materials.

The rooms have samples of stretched, gallery frame and mat with frame styles.
Which style do you like? If you do a simple stretched style I like a 1.5 inch depth on the sides.
I then paint the sides a soft grey, white or black mat paint. I have also painted the sides the colour of the wall that the painting will sit on if it does not conflict with the artwork. So many considerations?
