About Perth Picture Framing
Perth Picture Framing was established in 1997 and owner Veronica Airth previously managed a picture framing business and gallery in Toronto. Veronica prefers to do business in Perth where creative people abound.

Perth Picture Framing and Gallery Perth both operate from an updated old home on 16 Wilson Street West in Perth .
"I think the reason you find a large number of artists in this rural area is because innovation and creativity are a necessity to earn a living here." Veronica believes that living outside an urban centre challenges us to be resourceful. In that sense, the picture framing business has been successful and after ten years she opened Gallery Perth. We sell original works of local and regional artists whose work is Canadian in style and a bit avant-garde."

Perth Picture Framing:

Creative designing and colour consulting are part of the services offered. Custom conservation framing and matting as well as laminating, plaque mounting and repairs are provided. Memorabilia framing and use of shadow boxes to enhance objects d' art are also offered. Cleaning and restoring of pictures and frames are specialties, along with advice on how to display art-work in your home or office. A picture hanging and placement service is available. We are members of the Professional Picture Framers Association.

Gallery Perth:

The addition of an art gallery fulfills a long held dream for Veronica.

"We are showing Canadiana and the work of local artists in various media. It has long been my desire to sell and promote the work of creative people and it seems to come naturally to me. I am honoured to represent many of our local talented artists and hope to earn their respect as a Gallery owner,"

Not only has Veronica fulfilled her own dream, but she is also providing a venue for artists to show their work, and for visitors to Gallery Perth to view and purchase the work of creative and resourceful people who live locally.

 


Featured Artists:

Larry Bracegirdle's oil paintings are bathed in a warm, inviting Light: an intriguing use of paint and colour that is reminiscent of the surrealist, Salvador Dali and the realist, Johannes Vermeer. Both artists have influenced the Bracegirdle style which is apparent in his delightful interiors. His "Modern-Old-Master" approach has become Larry's signature which he has developed over 30 years, and to which he owes his success. Several Canadian galleries own Larry's work, along with many private collectors throughout Canada and the world. A former Perthite, Larry now lives in Victoria B.C. painting everyday scene with candid reverence. Heritage home interiors continue to be favourites subjects.



"A Warm Blanket"

"La sucrerie, Chénéville"
John Mlacak is a passionate outdoor oil painter. His work captures both the bold and subtle colours of the Canadian seasons and the vibrant red and green roofs of Quebec farm buildings like this wonderful rendering of a sugar bush in the making of maple syrup.
Gordon Harrison finds inspiration and colour in the landscape that surrounds him and in locales important to his life, such as the Ottawa Valley, the Gatineau Mountains and the Laurentians. He has also found inspiration in the landscapes of Newfoundland, Prince Edward Island, Nova Scotia, Cape Breton, the Charlevois region, Georgian Bay and the Lake Superior's Algoma region and the Prairies. He uses these inspirations as his subject matter, recreating them through his own vision.


"Vandyke Pine, Meech Lake, Quebec"
SOLD

Perth Picture Framing recently completed an innovative framing project for the White House Annex, a part of the new Code's Mill Inn and Spa on the Tay River in Perth . Another favourite project was for the Upper Canada District School Board where over 100 children's paintings and drawings were framed, some of which now hang at the Board offices in Brockville .
