Great tutorial. But I'm confused by the statement that the sheets tear down into standard sizes for framing. I've never found premade frames in 7 1/2" x 11"
I believe an A4 frame is like 8.3x11.7 inches, or a standard 2:3 frame near that size would be 8x12 inches. You typically want to leave a little room around the edges of the painting within the frame
This was useful and easer than cutting. But there’s no use preserving edges since they will be destroyed by stretching. Unless you’re using the 300 pound.
Thanks for your comment Reginald. Jess doesn't stretch his paper when he paints. He uses the "towel method" which is explained in this video. ruclips.net/video/aI0r0_d5log/видео.html
That's true Reginald, but our instructor Jess never stretches paper and very rarely tapes the edges either. We find it unnecessary with 100% cotton paper.
Thank you for this! :)
Very concise and accurate. Thanks
