devilsrain Posted June 2, 2012 Share Posted June 2, 2012 Nice. Some unusual framing on the Bone but I like the " looking through a window" feel to it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoinAddict Posted June 2, 2012 Share Posted June 2, 2012 Thanks. The way the art was drawn on the paper led to the odd framing. I wanted to frame it at 11x14 and the way Jeff had drawn it on the sheet there was more blank space below the image then above it. I like how you describe it as "looking through a window". That is definitely what it feels like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

evanc Posted June 3, 2012 Share Posted June 3, 2012 You could add a title plate to it below the art to balance it out I think, but personally it looks fine to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tokay Posted June 4, 2012 Share Posted June 4, 2012 Quick question. I am thinking of getting a nice graphite on paper sketch. I have heard that I should put it under glass for preservation reasons...can someone give me a reason? Also, any other things I need to consider for displaying this kind of art? i really like the piece but don't want to get it if it's going to fade or break down in 20 years. Thanks.

Claudio Posted June 4, 2012 Share Posted June 4, 2012 You need to put it under preservation glass or else light will cause it to fade. If you put it under preservation glass, you will be good for decades. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tokay Posted June 4, 2012 Share Posted June 4, 2012 Claudio - thank you! Does museum glass also protect from light like preservation glass? Or should I stick with preservation glass? Thanks again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alxjhnsn Posted June 4, 2012 Share Posted June 4, 2012 To my knowledge: Preservation glass = Museum glass = transparent material designed to absorb UV radiation Also, graphite (pencil) smears. Make sure to mat the drawing so that the glass/plastic does not touch it. Some folks use fixative to eliminate that issue, but a mat is nicer.

Claudio Posted June 4, 2012 Share Posted June 4, 2012 Yes, museum and preservation glass are the same. They both filter 99% of the UV rays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
malvin Posted June 5, 2012 Share Posted June 5, 2012 (edited) I think the only difference between preservation glass and museum glass is the anti glare coating. Museum glass has it so pictures can be taken easier, but they are both archival and block out UV light to the same extent Malvin Edited June 5, 2012 by malvin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thecactusish Posted June 5, 2012 Share Posted June 5, 2012 Just got this back framed today. Haven't hung it up and it's got my grubby finger prints all over it for now, but it's the original painting for THE ROAD WARRIOR poster. So excited to have found it.
