Our Framers
The Art of Framing Difference
We believe it’s not enough to simply like art or be ‘arty’ to be a great picture framer. And it’s not enough to only understand colour balance, design ratio, conservation materials and techniques either. To be a great framer, you need to understand people. At the Art of Framing, we are warm and welcoming and communicate exceptionally well, meaning we can adapt our expert knowledge and decades of experience to each customers’ expectations.
We can translate your needs into beautifully framed artworks.
Our friendly framers are all trade qualified. But more than that, our team is approachable and adaptive, passionate, creative and respectful. We’re problem solvers who are highly experienced in a variety of conservation techniques and offer excellent design advice. We’re individually and collectively passionate about art: each of us has a background in fine art, architecture or graphic design. And some of our framers are even talented practicing artists.
