I've done an oil painting on oil sketch paper which I need to get framed. Any advice would be greatly appreciated? My main problem is what to attach it too and what adhesive to use?

Hi Cathy
Were you going to take your painting to a framer's, or do it yourself? There is lots of information about framing on the internet - you can get a lot of the basics from the UK School of Framing website (www.DIYframing.com).

Hi Angie!
Thank you for your reply!
I've used DIY framing before, although I used www.thepictureframingexperts.co.uk this time. Picture is now framed and hanging in the local Buckingham Art Trail. My main concern was how to stick the picture to the backing so the paper wouldn't sag! Then I remembered Spray mount. - wonderful stuff.
