A vintage black & white photograph is great, but watch what happens as you add a double mat and then the frame...STUNNING!! The fourth pic is the finished product with 99% UV protected Museum Glass for that no glass look in a rustic black frame with touches of gray in it.

 

How do you display Dad's 15 well read and beloved comic books from his childhood? His adult children have even handled and read them all, but you want to display them? Put three each into five frames. With Marvel Avengers featuring Captain America, Iron Man, Silver Surfer, Captain Marvel, Warlock and Iron Fist a silver frame with three dimensional carved stars seemed like the perfect frame. Using a black mat to put a border around them and all under 99% UV protected Museum Glass.

 

The birds!! Beautiful original watercolor painting by a local artist of plovers on the seashore. Using a double mat and regular plexiglass in a contemporary frame of a light natural wood tone we made this small gem ready to ship as a gift.

 

Hey everyone...meet Ben!! This is the beloved pet of our client who had this custom artwork made. We assisted in choosing the colors of the double matting and chose a glossy black frame with some brownish red highlights along the edges. All framed under Ultra Vue 70% UV protected glass (UV70) which has a bit less UV protection but the same disappearing effect as museum glass all at a more economical price. Doesn't he look awesome!!

 

Did you know that having an image printed on canvas can then be framed without any glass? This NBA player of the Portland Trailblazers reminded our client of his own family member in this stylistic portrait. We mounted the canvas in the vacuum heat press to foamcore board and placed it in a contemporary flat black frame with no glass. It makes it light as a feather (not really, but still lightweight!)

 

How about some Fungi Females? All three prints were framed with a rustic wood frame only and no matting all under the 99% UV protected Museum Glass for that no glass look!!

 

Grandma's original watercolor landscape painting with an acid-free double mat, a rustic wood frame all under the beautifully invisible Museum Glass with 99% UV protection.

 

Do you have kid's art that you're really proud of? How about a piece from Art Class that got an "A"?!!!

This was drawn with crayons and we mounted it in the heat press with Preserve Ultra* to lay nice and flat.  Then we double matted it with a black and blue mats and framed under UV 70** glass with a contemporary flat shaped black frame.

*Preserve Ultra is an Acid-Free mounting process used in the vacuum heat press that is reversible without leaving any adhesives to your artwork.

**UV 70 glass has 70% UV protection while diffracting the reflection like the museum glass, but at an economical price.

Meet Trubel (pronounced like trouble)...a custom portrait, dog collar with tags, paw and nose prints on paper, cast of pawprint, some snips of fur in an acrylic box, and his favorite rocks.

The dog collar is hand sewn through the layers of a double mat with three openings, while the plaster cast of the pawprint is glued on to the top of the matting.

Both of the rocks and the acrylic box holding snips of Trubel's fur are adhered to the inside base of the frame. All of this is behind the magnificence of Museum Glass with 99% UV protection and the special anti-reflection coating that makes it look like there isn't any glass!
