We ve outlined below some of the differences between a number of options including tips and recommendations to help you narrow them down and finally choose the perfect frame for your art.
How to choose mat and frame for art.
If you re choosing a brown frame you probably don t want to use a brown mat.
Matching your frame and mat is rarely a good option.
The same goes for a red frame and a red mat.
Mats create visual space for the artwork to breathe.
Though the options can be overwhelming turning your photos into beautifully framed pieces of art doesn t have to be a daunting task.
While it may be tempting to use the same color the likelihood of the mat and frame matching perfectly is pretty slim.
Follow these guidelines and become a master of color coordination.
With so many framing styles available we understand that choosing the right frame and mat combo for your art can be confusing.
Instead of the artwork jutting right up to the frame a mat provides a border of whitespace.
