Framing oil on canvas on a floater frame

   

Framing oil on canvas on a floater frame
When I first saw this is contemporary oil painting on canvas, I immediately thought of framing it in a floater-type frame. I selected a matt black floater profile from among my moulding samples as this would blend well with the black tones in the painting. The canvas was stretched on kiln-dried stretcher bars, care must be taken to use just enough force as we don't want to damage the canvas, on the other hand, we don't want it to be slack either since this will look ugly. The stretched canvas was then carefully positioned on the assembled floaters and fixed using offset clips. The back was sealed properly so that dust and insects will not accumulate. Framing using the floaters will not look good for many oil paintings, but for this particular item, it is just perfect.
