Framing without Glass 
This video shares the process that I like to use with some of my watercolor paintings on paper and how to frame them without glass. You will see five demonstrations on mounting blank watercolor paper, a print, original artwork and problem solving. I will show you how I seal and protect them with UV protection, along with a few extra additional features on how to get the most authentic signature on dark backgrounds and a special treat creating a triptych. The triptych at the end of the video will be hanging at the Bolinas Museum next to oil and acrylic paintings. By using this process it offers an additional way too add dimension to watercolor paintings.This video is designed so that the average artist can easily achieve professional results without a huge investment and by using many items already found around the house. VHS - $ 45     DVD - $ 45.

Testimonial Samples 

Hi Birgit: After viewing your videos and attending your workshop, something happened and I got that magic burst of "whatever" to take my work to the next plateau! It was like a "cosmic event" Laurie, CA . 

Birgit I received your video, watched it 20 times, enjoyed every moment.  Thanks for the instruction and inspiration.  I have become a painting fool! I look forward to ordering more of your videos and am recommending your video to our local art guild.  They will love it!  Thanks Bunches! Noreen Tyrell, MI   ........more
