Description
Picture framing is often thought of as something that should be left to professionals. However, more and more people are becoming interested in making their own frames to display and protect the pictures - such as paintings, prints, photographs and posters - that they find or create. Robert Cunning has been a frame-maker for several years. During this time he has worked in a variety of frame-making workshops where he has learnt gilding and restoration skills as well as the more popular and simpler aspects of frame-making. He teaches classes in gilding and frame-making in London.
