Glass

When it comes to framing a painting, print or photo there are many options to glazing—plexi-glass, glass, varnishing (done by the artist) or not at all— plus different types of finishes and UV protection.

My usual glazing choice is 99% UV protective conservation glass or museum glass. Lately I've been using museum glass, which is amazing in that you can barely see it. It's more expensive, but I figure I'm spending a lot of time on my paintings and would like them to be framed with the same quality and care as I've put into the creation part.

A qualified framer will be happy to help you decide what the best choice would be for you.
