A very good explanation of how to hang a canvas piece. I especially liked the concept of securing the wire to make it look “professional”.

Hi, this may help but when I attach a wire to my paintings I fasten one end and then slip on about an inch and a half of heat sleeving or tubing over the finished twist. The sleevng is normally just slightly bigger than the wire. Then use a lighter to heat the tubing which causes it to shrink tight onto the wire. Always looks a nice job. Thought it may help.

That's way more instructive than the packing, thank you! If you're looking for game painting ideas, Jet Set Radio Future could be a fun one :)

This is very handy! I have the Nowhere Islands painting propped up on my wall with command strips, but I might wire it!

Thank you Mal, I'm doing this to a large oil painting today. Your clear instructions will help immensely! I also have to package the painting for a plane ride... I'm off to see if you have a tutorial for packaging!
