Whether capturing the hyper-realistic essence of Photorealism or showcasing a heightened sense of reality through Surrealism, art always tells a story. Walking through an exhibit, you appreciate the details that distinguish the pieces from each other and note the amount of care taken to preserve their integrity.
When you display a work of art, it’s safe to say the frame you use is just as essential as the image itself. With the ideal framing material, you can enhance a piece’s appearance while protecting them from damage.
Without further ado, here are three factors to consider when custom framing art:
1. Scale
First, assess the size of your artwork. Pieces differ in length and width. Surprisingly, some frames may not complement elements in ways you expect.
For instance, imagine you're a budding artist and preparing for your first art show. You’ll likely worry about the venue, marketing, and any distinguished guests coming to witness your first steps in the art realm. Your artwork speaks for itself. You hope each piece makes a statement.
Consider playing with frame scales and placing small artwork in larger frames to captivate the viewer’s attention. The space between the frame and the canvas creates a pleasant contrast, allowing the viewer's eyes to wander around the piece and see all its fine details.
2. Style
Your artwork’s style can dictate how you approach framing. If your technique takes inspiration from classic painters, a sophisticated frame with intricate detailing will complement the painting’s elegant notes.
If your talents focus on digital art and modern technology, a sleek, subtle frame is a more suitable option that accentuates the method’s futuristic aesthetic.
3. Colors
When selecting a custom frame, you can expect to alter specifications like dimensions, detailing, and color. It’s worth noting that the frame’s color can also impact the viewer’s impression of your work. If you select a shade that clashes with the canvas, you risk the frame detracting from the overall appearance, possibly devaluing your talent.
If you’re showcasing art that uses neutral hues like beige, white, gray, and black on a light-hued wall, consider selecting a darker-colored frame to create separation that helps your pieces pop.
Custom framing art is an art within itself that deserves fine attention to detail. Consider these three factors allows you to approach framing with care and help each piece shine in its best light.
