Mark Ryan Fine Art Services

Mark Ryan Fine Art Services is a premier destination for all your fine art mounting, framing, and handcrafting needs. Located in the vibrant city of Oakland, California, we have been serving our valued clients for many years, providing them with exceptional services that meet their unique requirements. Our team of experienced professionals is dedicated to delivering the highest quality results, ensuring that your artwork is preserved and showcased to its fullest potential.

Mounting Services

At Mark Ryan Fine Art Services, we offer in-house cold press mounting services for fine art photographic prints and other media on various substrates. These include aluminum, DiBond, EPanel, AF Foam Core, Gator Board, and Museum Rag, all utilizing acid-free and pH-neutral adhesives. Our mounting services are designed to provide a stable and secure base for your artwork, ensuring its longevity and preservation.

In addition, we offer recessed back-framing made from poplar for those mounted projects that are not going to be traditionally framed. This minimalist approach keeps the mounted artwork exposed, allowing it to float off the wall once installed. Our team is always available to answer any questions you may have about our mounting services.

Hand Crafted Frames

For seamless and durable presentations, we will handcraft and finish custom closed corner frames for your artwork using industry-standard hardwoods such as Ash, Maple, Oak, Walnut, and Cherry. These frames are designed to enhance the beauty of your artwork while providing a secure and long-lasting display solution.

We also offer a variety of other custom options, including welded steel and aluminum frames in different grind patterns, stains, and paint colors. Our team will work closely with you to create a custom frame that perfectly complements your artwork.

Finishes

All of our moulding starts out raw and can be painted, stained, or waxed to bring out the natural wood grain. If your project requires a custom paint or stain, we can meet your needs and provide chip samples during consultation. Our team is dedicated to creating a finish that perfectly complements your artwork and enhances its beauty.

Glazing

To protect your piece, we carry everything from standard to museum-grade acrylics and glass. We work with you to determine the best glazing option for your artwork based on its size, medium, and display location. Our team is committed to providing the highest level of protection for your artwork, ensuring its longevity and preservation.

The Bridge Collection

The Bridge Collection is our line of stock mouldings designed specifically with affordability in mind. These frame packages meet the same standards of our closed corner and other handcrafted frame packages, offering a consistent, quality-driven solution for all of your framing needs. We have worked diligently with some of the best manufacturers of moulding in the industry to offer you a hand-selected and carefully curated line of stock frames.

Our team is available to schedule a consultation to discuss your framing needs and help you choose the perfect frame for your artwork. We are committed to providing exceptional service and delivering the highest quality results for all of your fine art mounting, framing, and handcrafting needs.
