Are you ready to sell your artwork? print this page |
If you're just getting started selling your artwork we’re here to help. We’re well aware of the challenges you’re facing – choosing the right products, designing your mats, measuring - it can all be confusing. On the page below are some links to help you find the answers to your questions and to learn more about matting and framing.
|
 | If you're not sure exactly how to measure your art or what size window and outside dimension you need, start with some educational posts under Mat Basics in Documounts 101. If you're wondering about what you need for a certain project, look for the What You'll Need Series in Documounts 101 |
|
 | Once you know the size you're looking for you'll know if you can use standard size mats or if you need custom. We have ready made kits in standard and archival for the most popular standard size images (5x7, 8x10, 8.5x11, 8x12, 11x14, 13x19, 16x20) in limited colors. These ready for market Mat Kits come in packs (usually of 25) and consist of standard size mats, mounting board and clear bags - everything you need to get started. |
|
 | If you want special colors, sizes or quantities you would need to order custom mats. This page should help you with any design help you need for your custom mat project. Once you know your measurements you can go learn how to order custom cut mats. There's lots of good information on the Matboard Category page as well. Keep in mind when determining how many mats you want that you get a break in mat and mountboard when you buy the same exact thing in quantity. The break is at 4, 8, 16, 48, 250, 1000, 5000. You can see a pricing table of all products here. If you have a custom order and are not sure if it is something we can do feel free to give us a call. |

Deciding which color or style you want to go with can be difficult. To get some ideas you can visit the Top Sellers page to see which products are the most popular. The Which White page is a popular page and neccesary for determining the kind of white you need. Catalogs and computer monitors can't really convey the subtleties of the different whites.. |

 | Not sure how it all goes together? We have a Fitting and Framing guide that will help you out. Lots of other help in Documounts 101 and on the blog. You can also always call to get some help. We're happy to give our advice. We work with new artists everyday. |
