Mary’s Landscape Art Info

During the last few days, I have spent a fair amount of time finishing my landscape paintings. That means writing the name of the painting, where it was painted, and the date, as well as signing it on the back of the stretchers which support the painting.

Also, I must put in the eyelets and attach the wire with which to hang the painting. Fortunately, the wire is covered with a plastic which makes it easy to handle. If a frame is to be used, I must drill holes for screws because these latest frames are oak. The screws hold a metal piece that keeps the painting in the frame. So all-in-all, it takes a while just to “finish” a painting, and if several are waiting to be done, it can amount to a considerable amount of time.
