Custom matting is beautiful and can really enhance your art, but the cost quickly adds up when you’re doing multiple pictures. My solution was to go to the local art shop and find a really nice paper (heavyweight and acid free) that I could mount the prints on top of. It looks very much like matting and performs the same function of adding a layer of colour and texture between the picture and the frame – but for a fraction of the price. I think I paid £5 for enough paper for all the pictures. As you can see here, a typical art shop offers a good assortment of high-quality papers in different colours and textures.
