Framing

Just got back from Blackheath after collecting a dozen new framed pieces from my very good framer Meg Jones. She does a beautiful job, using a hand-finished ash, stained black, with a mount in exactly the same shade as the printing paper.
I used to frame my own work but they have to put up with a lot of manhandling in their life with me and I’ve found it pays to have the best quality I can afford.
I have to deliver them to various galleries in the next couple of weeks, which is a bit of a trial as they are surprisingly heavy to carry around. Either I use a trolley which is really, really awkward on the tube, or I throw caution and expense to the wind and hop in a taxi.
This is definitely my least favourite job, I’m thinking now (until the next least favourite one comes along, of course…. )
