Hey all,
I'm going to enter some of my work in a competition soon and had a few quick questions. They don't want the work framed, but they want it matted with backing board.
- I was just curious as to where you all would suggest buying online and what size backing board you would use?
I'm looking to keep the costs down and it doesn't have to be museum quality products by any means.


Thanks a bunch for the insight.

Try golden state art...


EOS 6d, 7dMKII, Tokina 11-16, Tokina 16-28, Sigma 70-200mm F/2.8, Sigma 17-50 F/2.8, Canon 24-70mm F/2.8L, Canon 70-200 F/2.8L, Mixed Speedlites and other stuff.

When it ceases to be fun, it will be time to walk away

If you do a web search for "picture matte online", you will find a number of suppliers.

Thanks you two.
I've been looking and have found a few that are looking promising.
I just thought I would post up here to see if there are any go to places for price to quality ratio.
