BOTANICAL ART & ILLUSTRATION PROGRAM

Framing Botanical Art Winter/Spring 2011

Instructor: Susan Rubin (email: susan@susanrubinstudio.com )

Note: An $8.00 prep and accessory materials fee will be requested at first class. I will supply all archival mats, backing, tape, hinges, tools, and incidental framing materials. In addition to discussion, handouts, and demonstration, you will actually frame a small piece of your work in this workshop. Small botanical (or other) piece to frame. Artwork in any medium is fine as long as the image will fit comfortably into a 5 X 7 mat opening. The paper size must be larger than the 5 X 7 opening. If you are in doubt, bring a couple of options. Consider a classroom exercise, a little piece tucked away in a file, or ANY 5 X 7 artwork. Picture Frame: 8 X 10 frame. This describes the opening, not the outside dimensions of the frame. Choose a frame that complements your artwork. Please, wooden frames only (any finish), no metal or plastic. Avoid the frames with an easel-back. We will discuss future framing choices in depth during the class. Glass: 8 X 10 to fit your frame Pencil Ruler Scissors Exacto knife Phillips head screwdriver Repositionable Scotch Tape (blue plaid packaging)
