Xenz Butterfly Canvases, by neale on Jul 13, 2009 16:36:09 GMT 1, Has anyone framed any of the little canvases that made up the mosaic at the Forster show? Cant find any pics on the Xenz forum, or on here. If anyones got any framed up would love to see some pics, as not sure how to frame the 2 I've just bought. Ta!

Than you can take the ready made frame to a framer who can cut some museum conservation board, float mount the artwork and seal the back with some tape for a couple of quid.
Here it is...

Xenz Butterfly Canvases, by sand on Jul 13, 2009 19:27:09 GMT 1, Glad I could help argiebaji, they look very nice in person (better in person than my rubbish pic) and work very well leaving approx. 1'' around the whole of the canvas board.
Pretty much spot on!

Xenz Butterfly Canvases, by bonesy on Jul 14, 2009 1:23:03 GMT 1, Ive seen work by him that I do like and this image as a whole was nice as well. But these small pieces of the larger image just dont do anything for me, no matter how affordable they were. You need the full picture to get the feeling of his style IMO. To each their own.
