Technique, Presentation, Mounting and Framing.
Technique Used
Paintings are produced using soft pastels on high quality pastel paper. These are mainly painted in A3 size (297mm X 420mm) - (11.7ins X 16.5ins) but can be of larger or smaller format by request, within the limits of commercially available pastel paper sizes.
Mounting and Framing
As mounting and framing choices are dependent on customer preference e.g. to suit the décor at the location where the picture will be displayed; and also for considerations of transport and handling - especially by post - it is sensible to supply the painting in an unmounted state but suitably protected.
For these reasons, mounting and framing are normally left for the client to arrange. However, if you would prefer me to organise this aspect of an order , I have several contacts who will be happy to undertake this work.
Please see my 'Framed Pictures Gallery' and the 'Links' page on the main menu.
Other frequently used contacts, who are familiar with my work, can also produce permanent (Giclee) prints or cards from my paintings which you may wish to send to family and friends. The image below shows mounted Giclee prints of some of my pastel work. (With 'Nipper' helping)

Although finished artwork is normally supplied in unmounted and unframed condition, if being delivered by hand or collected, it will always be securely taped to a stiff backing card and the painted surface protected by fixative spray and covered with a sheet of soft tissue and a sheet of thick paper.
