Where the designer is in the store, custom picture framing & pet portraits created with love and pride.
Located on the Bear Point peninsular, Sam (the Labradoodle) will greet you at the door ~ call ahead if you prefer to be welcomed by Gillian! Framing of photos, original artwork, needlework, shadowboxes - military, sports jerseys, etc. Helping you frame your memories in the most appealing and artistic manner while paying attention to details that preserve the work for generations, e.g. UV or museum glass, acid-free or museum matboards, etc. As a Certified Picture Framer and Member of the PPFA, Gillian practices conservation and preservation techniques. A CPF is required to re-certify every four years, which Gillian has done. A wonderful hobby has turned into a splendid adventure ~ exploring more talents, working leisurely away from the hubbub of an inflexible routine. Gillian began tole painting in 2005, supplemented by training in acrylic art through Andrea Mossop's St. Lawrence College (Brockville, ON) workshop "Painting Extra-Ordinary" which focused on adding light into a project; also 'Painting Green" held on a farm for 2 days - great fun! And another class on pet drawing and some watercolour training with the late Diane Godwin-Sheridan at the St. Lawrence College (Brockville, ON) July 2013. In July 2014, held a 1-day workshop called "Introduction to Picture Framing" here at the Studio; registration was through the Summer Arts Program, St. Lawrence College, Brockville, Ontario. Now offering PICTURE FRAMING CLASSES here at the Studio, just $25/hour. Call to book your session. |
