That's a great idea. I will put it on the list. If you want to frame your soft pastel painting using a mat you would use a double reverse mat method. Which is simply putting a mat with a larger opening behind the mat that shows. This creates a small gap that will allow any shedding to be hidden. Have a great day and thanks for taking the time to comment.
Thank you for the tutorial. Great information. Where do you get your spacers?
