Virtual Member Meet & Greet: Framing Demonstration with Amy Weh

Mosaic artist Amy Weh will lead a virtual demonstration on framing on Tuesday, September 9, 2025 at 7:00 PM.

Join me for a live, behind-the-scenes workshop on how I professionally frame mosaic artwork—from selecting the right moulding to archival materials and clean, gallery-ready assembly. I’ll demo real examples on camera so you can see every tool and material I use and how I use them.

I bring 20+ years of archival framing experience to the table: gallery assistant, fitter, framer, frame shop manager, handmade frame builder, installer, and mat cutter—working with first-time artists to seasoned collectors. I’ve framed professionally at Bressler Eitel Framing Gallery, Cardinal Stritch University Art Department, and Hobby Lobby, alongside running Mosaicweh, where I create original mixed-media mosaics using repurposed materials. That dual perspective—artist + framer—means I’m focused on elevating your artwork. 

You’ll learn:

• How to choose a frame that strengthens your composition (not competes with it)

• Archival basics: substrates, hinging, spacers, glass (including UV options)

• Clean assembly techniques for a polished, professional finish

• When a custom frame is worth it—and smart low-cost alternatives

• Pricing tips: how good framing raises perceived value and improves profit margin

Whether you’re a mosaic artist or working in another medium, the key is simple: don’t frame it wrong when you can frame it right the first time. A thoughtful frame can transform your piece, make it ready to hang, and elevate your price point.
