frames

Canvas floater frames and picture frames built directly in-studio by the artist.

new - picture frames

The wood is cut with a mitre saw.
Used a router to cut into the wood for inserting the painting.
I glue the frame together using Gorilla Glue and a 4 way clamp.
After sanding down the frame, I use a stain/varnish (Feast Watson's Satin Black Japan).
Painted a gold trim. Here's the finished frame! (Painting: As the last light touches the mountains)
  • I can now make picture frames for both canvas and wood panel paintings!
  • All frames are made from either Meranti or Tasmanian Oak wood
  • I use a router to cut notches in the wood to insert the painting before assembling the frame

large floater frames - for canvas paintings

  • Canvas floater frames are now available with my paintings! I make these frames right in my studio! Our choices of wood are the strong, sturdy and smooth hardwoods - Meranti and Tasmanian Oak. These measure 12x42mm.
  • The base of the frame is made of 19x42mm Pine wood. The wood is cut using a mitre saw and all pieces are glued together using the high strength Gorilla Glue before being reinforced with v nails or staples at each joint. This makes for incredibly strong frames that are built to last.
  • I sand down and stain/varnish each frame in either Rich Walnut Satin, Natural Satin, Cedar Satin or Black Satin, and these are tailored specifically for each painting.
  • The painting is then safely secured to the frame with screws at each corner at the back before the d-rings and hanging cord are attached and ready to hang.
  • ​I am excited to be able to offer finished frames with my paintings, as these give a professional and polished look! This is also a more economical and convenient choice for the buyer, as framing companies charge a large amount to make each frame.

small floater frames - for wood panel paintings

  • For my smaller paintings on panel, the Meranti and Tasmanian Oak measure 12x30mm.
  • Meranti wood ranges from yellowish to reddish and also varies in wood grain. Therefore, each frame is unique yet still similar to one another.
  • The base of the frame is also made of 19x42mm Pine wood and painted black around the edges.
  • I use straight cuts instead of angled cuts and all pieces are glued together using the highest strength Gorilla Glue.
  • I sand down and stain/varnish each frame in either Rich Walnut Satin, Natural Satin, Cedar Satin or Black Satin.
  • The painting is then safely glued to the frame before the d-rings and hanging cord are attached.
  • Each frame has a 2-3mm gap around the painting.

Ready to hang

  • All original paintings have d-rings and cord attached to the back of each frame or canvas. They are all ready to hang.
  • ​(NEW) I use plastic coated picture framing hanging wire with an 11kg load capacity.
  • (OLD) I use professional picture framing 2mm plaited polyester cord and 30x15mm d-rings with an approximate weight load of 8kg.
