Original Artworks

Oil on canvas board by local artist David Young - a brushed gold moulding with a slim matboard white inlay designed to complement the stunning colour of the artwork.

A child's first attempts at art - creatively framed with a simple stressed wooden mould and highlighted with a 3D matboard surround - will surely sow the seeds well into the future.

Higher School Certificate entry given the finishing touches with a simple matboard frame - no glass.

A whimsical water colour illustration of Lewis Carroll's 'Mad Hatters Tea Party' - again simplicity is always the best - a simple mould/frame and white matboard - at no time distracting from the artwork.

Original artwork from Central Australia simply framed with complementary matboard and dark timber frame.

Contemporary American print - white matboard and simple white frame - and it works.
'I can't recommend the service from Australiana Picture Frames enough. Great price, great people and fabulous framing - 5 STARS...' Georgia Beatie, Bathurst NSW 25th June 2020
'Did a brilliant job on my diamond art. Highly recommended.' Helen Rixon
'Wal did a great job framing a large canvas and an oil painting for me. Great communication and reasonably priced, would gladly deal with him again!' Helen Dingemans
'Wal made me feel comfortable from the moment I entered his studio. He took the time to understand the sentiment behind the pieces and the intended space it would be displayed. I was provided multiple options based on the idea I had in mind and the information I provided.
My frames are truly spectacular and have given new life to family heirlooms that I am proud to have hanging in my home. I highly recommend Wal and his studio, I will be back!' Amy Munro, Bathurst NSW 10th September 2021
'Wal has mounted and framed several varied pieces of art for me - ranging from small watercolours, photographs, large canvas art and an assortment of bulky school badges and ties.
All have been very professionally and meticulously done and at a reasonable price. Wal listens and cares about your precious pieces and this shows in the finished products. I would highly recommend Wal and Australiana Picture Frames.' Anne Llewellyn, Bathurst NSW 28th August 2022
'Wal couldn't have done a better job and was very helpful in choosing appropriate frames. Have no hesitation in recommending him.' Kay Cleaver, Bathurst NSW 30th August 2022
Photographs

Stunning family photographs/portraits by Bathurst photographer Aimee Cook. The images were printed on a beautiful handmade paper, mounted in a 3D format and framed with a Natural White Ash frame.



White On White - two old favourites - a childhood portrait and the grandmother's treasured tapestry - removed from their 40 year old frames and re-framed with a simple white matboard and two contemporary white frames.
Posters

Bathurst Supercar poster - again simply framed with a soft natural timber frame and a charcoal matboard. This poster has been signed by the winning drivers, thus increasing its value considerably.


'Winnie the Pooh' poster from the V&A Museum, London - celebrating the works of A A Milne. Framed with a thin matt black moulding and again a thin black matboard designed to distract as little as possible from the image itself.
Clothing & Memorabilia

Great memories preserved for all time. A 1980s vintage NSW Fire Brigade jacket framed in a shadow box (designed to give the depth needed for this heavy bulky garment) moulding with navy blue matboard.

A footy fans delight. Their favourite club jumpers framed and protected for life.

'Happy Birthday Dad...' ô0th birthday present for a true cricket tragic. Four representative caps outlining the career of a true local hero. Simple black frame and neutral matboard - doesn't need anymore than that.

Historic family photographs given a new lease of life. Wedding portrait of Mr and Mrs Joseph Hamilton, Armidale NSW 1901 - photo had been damaged and now will last another 100 or so years. An insert included giving some details of the family included.



A lot of effort has gone into collecting these family portraits. Framed with conservation grade mat and backing board and a rustic Winston Teak frame. This collection should be around in many years to come.
Medals & Badges



Boer War and WWI service medals, badges and unfortunately the 'dead man's penny' (a large brass medallion issued to the families of a serviceman who died in service of the British Empire during WWI) of local Bathurst hero Lt Col Charles McIntosh.
This collection survived hidden in a storage cupboard at All Saints'College for 80 years before this job was commissioned.
A deep black shadow box frame was chosen with purple and khaki matboard trim backing - purple and black being the colours of the 12th Light Horse Battalion - that commanded by Lt Col McIntosh at the time of his death late in 1918.

Fabric

A stunning cross stich depicting a group of old rockers - simple dark mould with a 3D matboard in colours sampled from the work itself.
