Finally found an ideal frame!

This is directed to other artists, mostly...have you noticed how small is the variety of floater frames available at conventional framers? Floaters are the best for me - to be unobtrusive,contemporary looking, yet finish off the painting for presentation. The places I have checked have only black (not great for some high key paintings), or they are too heavy looking, or... way too expensive to invest in for a demonstration frame. Anyway, I just had one made to order from inexpensive hemlock lath. The woodworker planed the rough wood and joined it in an L-shape, then mitred the corners to create a box that is 1-1/8" deep, just right for a standard canvas. I use spacers made out of matboard scraps in all 4 corners to centre the canvas, then screw it to the frame from the back - easy to remove and substitute a new canvas when necessary. It cost $39 for a 20 x 30" and is an unfinished natural blond color. You can see the matboard scrap spacers in the second picture - these will, of course, be removed after the screws are in - wish me luck!
