Frame a Micro-Mini Canvas Painting

Attachment 21464

I finally finished my micro-mini painting masterpiece in acrylic on canvas (measuring 2” x 3”). I call it: “Tree.”

The job wasn’t completed in its entirety though. It needed to be framed. Traditional store-bought frames would not do, as this painting is on canvas, stretched over a wood frame. The canvas frame was at least 3/8” thick. In addition, I really didn’t want any glass over the canvas painting.

I decided to make an “open” style frame out of wood, and leave a ¼” space between the canvas and frame all the way around. In this video, I’ll show you what I did to accomplish the look I was going for.

Here's the video:
