How I will frame and mount a portrait.
- First will be the backboard, these are all cut to size and ordered in bespoke per customer.
- The second layer to the frame will be the polyester moisture barrier.
- Next will be the barrier board which the art will sit on.
- The art will then be T hinged to the barrier board.
- Next comes the window mount (2.2mm conservation mounts)
- Then on top of this I will put the glazing, which is 2mm acrylic glazing as standard.
- After this I will be the frame sealing tape – aluminium barrier.
- All the layers will then sit in the frame.
- I will then seal the whole thing with framers’ gum tape. The frame will come with fixtures and fitting supplied.
- Finally, I will protect the portrait and box ready for shipping.
