Petersfield Framing Studios - Picture Framing Tuition

Picture Framing Tuition Demonstrations

We also offer picture framing tuition for the amateur picture framer or you may be a member of an arts and craft / photographic society that might be interested in a picture framing demonstration. This can be in the form of one to one tuition at your own home where we can provide a tailor made course to your specific requirements. Also you may like to enrol on one of the picture framing courses that we currently offer at Southdowns College. These are currently on offer 24 week courses running on a Thursday evening from September 2009. Please visit my other picture framing website, Framing Teacher, to learn more about these services.

I have also recently written a book all about picture framing. This book builds on the instructions written for the tools we sell but also goes into more detail on such topics as:

Choice of materials (probably the most important aspect of framing), mount cutting, frame cutting and assembly, cutting glass, fitting pictures, hanging pictures, mount decoration, oval mounts and frames, double mounts, multiple aperture mounts, framing needlework, framing 3-D artwork, stretching and framing oils, to list but a few of the sections of the book.

The book is written in an easy to follow, step by step approach. The book is also heavily illustrated with at least one photograph for each stage covered of every skill. If you are interested in buying a copy of this and would like some more information please contact me at info@petersfieldframing.co.uk
