Add Depth to Your Work With Pre Cut Photo Mats

Jan 12th 2015

One of the first things a person will learn in art class is perspective. In drawing, painting, and even sculpting, finding the right perspective can provide the perfect angle and starting point for the artwork. If the perspective is skewed or doesn't seem natural, viewers may not understand the piece; or, on the other hand, a unrealistic perspective can add to the dimension and dynamics of a piece. If you're an artist that creates two-dimensional work, pre cut photo mats from Matboard Plus can add depth and added perspective to your drawings, prints, or paintings.

When selecting your mat board, it's important to choose the correct type. If you have several editions of a print or painting that will be sold to various clients, you can probably pick an economy or standard mat type, keeping both your and your clients' costs low. Economy and standard mats aren't as archival - meaning they won't last as long as our Conservation mats, which are completely acid free and won't change over time, causing damage to the artwork they are framing. Economy and standard mats will typically last 7 to 12 years before they begin to change or affect artwork.

If you're working on a new piece, or have just finished a series and now need to frame your artwork, come to Matboard Plus for your pre cut photo mats. We will make sure that the integrity of your perspective is maintained, and that the depth that's added to your work only enhances the finished piece and its appeal to gallery viewers and art patrons.
