Making the frame for Tom Hoar’s paintings on Min Making the frame for Tom Hoar’s paintings on Mini-golden Wild Panels Artist and Square and Golden Ambassador Tom Hoar has been so successful selling small Oil Paintings as part of the Artist Support Pledge that we have designed a special edition Frame - the TH1 for them. The paintings are painted on Square and Golden Primed Mini-Golden Wild panels (220 x 136mm). These panels were originally made for Plein Air or Wild painting, and they fit into the Square & Golden Wildbox. The colours used in spray finishing the frame are White; Farrow and Ball Lamproom Grey, and Downpipe This video shows the process. . . . . . #artistsupportpledge #squareandgoldenambassador #squareandgolden #pleinairpainting #pleinair #wildpainting #gessoboard #ampersandgessobord #ampersandgessoboard #gessoboards #oilpaintings #oilpainting #farrowandball #lamproomgrey #downpipe @tomhoarart @pictureframes.uk #pictureframing #handfinishedpictureframes #sprayfinishing #artist
Nine Shades of Grey - an exercise conducted to loo Nine Shades of Grey - an exercise conducted to look for a good frame for  for the hugely successful series of paintings by  Square and Golden Ambassador Tom Hoar on S&G Mini-Golden Primed Wild Panels. These paintings are for sale on the Artist Support Pledge scheme. I decided on three colours to use: White; Farrow and Ball Lamproom Grey and Farrow and Ball Downpipe. These nine frames show nine different combinations of the three colours using the available zones of the Mini-Golden Wild Frame. Wild frames are available in three sizes: Mini-Golden; Small Square, and Small Golden - each in either Raw timber (FSC® certified, of course) or Traditional Gesso. The chosen frame out of this exercise will be added to the range as a finished option. Having shown the nine options to Tom and Laura, we all agreed that the one in the centre is the clear winner - see the other images for a couple of Tom’s paintings in the winning frame…. #artistsupportpledge #squareandgoldenambassador #squareandgolden #pleinairpainting #pleinair #wildpainting #gessoboard #ampersandgessobord #ampersandgessoboard #gessoboards #oilpaintings #oilpainting #farrowandball #lamproomgrey #downpipe @tomhoarart @pictureframes.uk

Everything you need in one box to create six or more paintings and to frame three of them in beautiful hand finished frames. Perfect for the whole Family - those that can paint: paint away!!

It is also great as a base for the paint used for finishing the frames. Paints Daler-Rowney System3 Acrylics are versatile water-based colours made from high quality pigments. Lightfast, permanent, flexible, quick drying, and easily thinned with water. Made in England. The Kit includes White and six other colours: in the contents description you will see that there are two of each primary colour and each has a different leaning towards a secondary colour. With these six colours and the White, you can mix absolutely any colour. As a simple example: if you want a very vivid Green, then mix the Lemon Yellow with the Pthalo Blue; but, if you want a very dull Green, then mix Ultramarine and Cad Yellow. ........ #stayhome #stayhomeandpaint
"Seabiscuit" by Anne-Louise Richards - #squareand "Seabiscuit" by Anne-Louise Richards - #squareandgoldenambassador and team member @pictureframes.uk Painted in acrylic on a Small Square Studio Panel with Traditional Gesso finish. A-L says: "The smoothness of the panel is really very nice for detailing, and the “quick soaking up” problem you get with initial washes diminishes significantly the more layers of paint there are." . . . . . #seabiscuit #acrylicpaintings #squareandgolden #iconpainter #gessoboard #ampersandgessobord #ampersandgessoboard #gessoboards #theshaftesburygroup @theshaftesburygroup #gesso #traditionalgesso
Square and Golden Studio Panels are made by a uniq Square and Golden Studio Panels are made by a unique process where a single piece of 6mm FSC® certified MDF board is routered and folded up around an FSC certified finger jointed Spruce sub-frame. This process has two main advantages: firstly that there are no actual joins on the facing edges of the panel; and second, that the box structure of the MDF has incredible strength even without the sub-frame, while retaining very light weight. The panels are available in two finishes on the front and sides, both of which are primed to prevent moisture ingress on the back. Raw Studio Panels are sanded but otherwise left unfinished allowing the user to apply a primer of their choice. Traditional Gesso Studio Panels are finished with a traditional rabbit skin glue based Gesso recipe which is unlike any other painting surface. Every size of Square and Golden Art Panel has a choice of at least two frames: one simple tray frame and one more elaborate tray frame. Frames are all available in either Raw finish or Traditional Gesso finish. Raw frames are sanded but otherwise left unfinished allowing the user to apply a finish of their choice. Gessoed frames are ready to have Bole and Gold Leaf applied or to be finished in countless other ways. https://www.pictureframes.co.uk/shop/24-square-golden use voucher: "S&G_Insta" for 10% Discount and Free Shipping on all S&G products #oilpaintingsupplies #paintingprocess #artmaterials #squareandgolden
Maikke - @art_mpz: the inspiration for @Squareandg Maikke - @art_mpz: the inspiration for @Squareandgolden - The S&G studio panel originated by @pictureframes.uk as a technique for making boxes on the back of frames for object framing. Maikke saw one and suggested that it would make a great surface to paint on…. Fast forward a few years and a lot of development and here is a work by Maikke, on a Medium Golden Studio Panel. . . . . #squareandgolden #iconpainter @art_mpz #gessoboard #ampersandgessobord #ampersandgessoboard #gessoboards #theshaftesburygroup @theshaftesburygroup @pictureframes.uk
