Watercolor

Watercolor paintings are generally matted

and placed behind glass or acrylic.

Watercolor paint tends to look light and airy

 and has a translucent quality.

To maintain that look, avoid mats and frames

that are dark and heavy.



This is just a general rule, every picture should

tell you what colors will work best,

sometimes it will not follow general rules.

Tip: Watercolors are original art.

Make sure they are properly preserved by using

appropriate conservation grade framing materials

to protect their value and their longevity
