Welcome to The Picture Framers' Forum. The Yahoo Group for PROFESSIONAL PICTURE FRAMERS and art gallery professionals. This is where you can exchange ideas, ask questions and get answers from others in the art gallery and custom framing industry.
All aspects of custom framing and art gallery/frame shop management may be discussed. Matting, mounting, cutting and joining of frames, glazing, conservation methods, needlework, liners, fillets, French matting, shadowboxes, art sales, current trends, classic styles and much more.
Let's learn and grow from each other's experience and advice. The more you know, the easier it gets. Knowledge is power.
If you are a hobbyist, photographer, artist or anyone else looking to learn picture framing from scratch, this is not the place to do so. It would be very difficult to use emails to teach techniques and machinery usage to people with no previous experience. Search the internet for "picture framing schools", or email this Group, and I will email you more information.
