Paintings, stretched right

Canvas stretching and float frames in Fort Worth

Rolled canvas and paintings that have gone slack need a proper stretch before they belong on a wall. Marty & Pat’s offers canvas stretching and canvas float frames so the face stays tight and the edges read as part of the piece, not an afterthought.

Float frames leave a slim reveal around a gallery-wrap or a stretched painting. Traditional moulding is still here for work that wants a closed edge. Either way, the conversation starts with the painting in the room — scale, finish, and how it will hang at home.

The location has offered full-service custom picture framing for over 40 years. Artists and collectors across Fort Worth use the Camp Bowie shop as a working studio bench, not a catalog counter, and the local art gallery on site shows how finished canvases actually look in a frame.

Visit 5025 Camp Bowie Boulevard Monday through Friday, 10:00 a.m. to 5:30 p.m., or call (817) 738-7328. If a canvas is too large for the car, ask about residential on-site consultation.
