Framing is a great skill to know as a fine artist and photographer. When you need to present your work in a gallery or showroom, appearance is everything. It can enhance the viewing experience or accent the image eloquently. In most gallery situations, simple is probably the best. For clients, they would probably demand something more elaborate.

There are tools and equipment also available that may aid you in your framing process. Precision is important and you do not want to fumble on cutting mats and glass. Much of the supplies are designed to reduce the time spent on preparation. Always be careful when using cutting tools in any situation.
