Two project by the same artist, for the same client, just one year apart! 😍
Around this time last year, a gorgeous pastel horse by was brought into the shop - we framed it in accordance with best practices for pastel pieces (no fixative in sight 😉) We used preservation mounting methods, and matted the piece using 100% cotton rag matboard. A spacer is added between the mat and the art, and this catches any spare dust that may fall from the piece, preventing discolouration of the mat and debris on the glass 🥰 We loved pairing the horse with a cream mat and soft blue moulding from - and then when our client brought in this cow a few weeks ago it was perfect to pair them up! We used the same methods and materials, but just tweaked the colours - pairing the cow with a light grey 100% cotton rag mat, and the dark grey version of the same Fotiou moulding 🤩 This way the pieces compliment each other without being identical 💕
Thank you so much for bringing these beautiful pieces of art to us! They’ve been a pleasure to work with 🥰🥰🥰
