Sizes for Pencil Portraits
Our pencil portraits are drawn to fit the size of paper you have ordered. Head studies will have approximately a 2 inch space between the image and the edge of the paper. Portraits with backgrounds will be drawn with approximately 1 inch space around the edge of the paper. This will allow the framer to attach a mount / matt to the portrait and you will have gained the largest possible sized drawing on the size you have ordered.
The frame along with the mount / matt will need to be one size larger than the size of portrait you order. The width of the mount / matt will be approximately 2inches wide and if you have any specific requests, please let us know at the time of ordering.
We always provide a mount / matt and backing when we frame your portrait. Jane our framer has a professional mount / matt cutter and we trust her to choose the size and width of the mount / matt to match the frame and the portrait.
