How to Frame for Your Artwork

So you've commissioned a portrait and it has arrived after a few months of anxiously waiting for it.
It is absolutely gorgeous - you love it and think it was well worth the wait.
As promised, it has arrived without a frame so that you can frame it to suit your décor but you aren't sure what type of frame you want.
There are so many to choose from.
How to frame your artwork - you have all these questions running through your head.
• What type of frame will go with your décor? • What type of frame will go well with the portrait? • Should you get it with or without matting? • What color frame should you get? • Should you get a thick frame or a thin frame? • Would a thick frame take away from the portrait? • Do you want a wooden art frame or a metal art frame? • Should you pick an ornate frame or a plain frame? My advice - don't fret it.
Everyone has a different style.
There is no one way to framing your artwork, what's more important is what you like, what you think will go well with your décor and your style.
You are the one that has to like the portrait.
It doesn't matter what anyone else thinks as it is your portrait, not there's.
So, go with what you like.
Pick a color that you like.
One that you think will go with your style.
One that you think will match your décor.
If you think matting will go with the portrait, go for it.
If you think you will like it without matting, then don't get matting.
The frame should be whatever thickness that you think will match your style and décor.
Either way, I'm sure it'll look fabulous.
The bottom line is, this is your portrait.
This is your home.
This is your style.
And you are the one that has to like the portrait.
In the end, you'll be happy with the final result and you'll be happy to show the pet portrait off to family and friends.
It doesn't matter if they like it or not - only you need to like it.
How to frame your artwork doesn't need to be a chore, it doesn't need to be complicated - it should be something that you enjoy and something you should be proud of when finished.
