About the final project for: Introduction to Frame Making
Framing Initiation
“Thank you very much for choosing this course and have come here. I hope you find it very useful and you can put it into practice for the projects you want.

If you like to work with color, assemble a palette, look for papers with floral or pictorial images to use in the background. If you like neutral colors, try framing black and white photographs, play with grays, blacks or whites. Use all your imagination, try everything you can think of and don't forget to ask me whatever you need. Keep in mind that in framing and in manual work it is necessary to practice, if you can not the first time, do not be discouraged and continue, little by little you will find the way that is most comfortable and you like more. I would love to see your project finished and tell me your experience! ”

A course by El Pez Enmarcado
Coy Aballay is the founder of the framing workshop El Pez Enmarcado. Throughout her career, spanning more than a decade and a half, she's framed everything from paintings and prints to photographs and objects using 100% handmade, custom frames. Before getting into the framing business, Coy studied graphic design and photojournalism, which helped her develop a keen eye for her craft and find the perfect balance between the artwork and its frame.
Her clients include illustrators, photographers, artists, and people who simply enjoy small-format art and decoration. She collaborates with Galería Mar Dulce and has built frames for a variety of exhibitions there; she has also worked with the brand VER making both classic and light-up frames in a range of sizes for their locations.
