Framing and its effect on Artwork

'Winter Panorama, Untitled No. 1'  from One Year in Ashridge

detail from 'Winter Panorama, Untitled No. 1' from One Year in Ashridge


It is my first time to float the panoramas from this series as I usually mount them flat. Also, it is my  first time to use black painted box frames with white painted timber filler pieces and I am really impressed. I like white frames but was fortunate my client wanted black as this gave me the opportunity to see them in a different finish. Frames at this size are expensive especially when including Anti Reflective glass (as we do here, note; no surrounding reflections) so the artist cannot always experiment with finishes. I think this series would also work well with unpainted dark timber frames. 

The panoramas are available in the four seasons and would look stunning hung together as a set - perhaps a commercial building or large residential that can take this size and quantity.  At this size, (1600 x 600) the panoramas are of an edition of 10. They are also available at a larger side of 2.8 meters long in an edition of 5 only. 

For more information about this series 'One Year in Ashridge' or any of my work including new commissions, framing, installing and choosing the correct artwork for your building -   please feel free to get in touch. 

In addition during the four weekends between September 7th and 29th I will be taking part in Herts Open Studios where I will be opening my studio to the public. I will also be happy to open my studio during the weekdays by appointment only.

Glebe Garden Gallery Official Opening












The doors of the Glebe Garden Gallery in Chelsea were officially opened for an exclusive exhibition of the artist Ghizlan El Glaoui's work. Champagne, Sushi, and an exquisite selection of Ghizlan's latest work with her unique trademark illumination, set the tone for a truly wonderful and memorable evening. 


I have collaborated with Ghizlan over the last 6 months, capturing the gallery interior, her artwork, and designing & producing her catalogue. It was the perfect event to celebrate her work and achievements.
