Artist Tips

1. I often mat and frame my own artwork ,as many artist do, to reduce/control costs on a project.  If you use a mat cutter, you often have to plan carefully how to cut the mat board for the image size and then the mat for the frame size.  This particularly is challenging when you want the professional look of a double mat under glass. If you use a Logan or similar cutter, I have a handy Excel worksheet that removes all the guess work.  You merely type in the frame size, the image size and the revealed inner mat width desired.  The program calculates with tolerances the settings you need to set on your mat cutter.  All the guesswork, frustrating mistakes and wasted mat board are gone.  Everything lines up perfectly when the artwork, inner and outer mats are assembled into the frame.  Obviously, works on single mats too.
