The Framework gallery was established in 1990
by Peter and Fiona Foyle to provide not only a
creative and quality picture framing service but
also to offer a gallery exhibiting original paintings
by Scottish Artists. There is also a range of
limited edition giclee prints available as well as an
interesting array of craft pieces, home accessories
and gifts. Peter graduated from St. Martin’s School
of Art, London in 1986 and worked as a freelance
illustrator before becoming involved in the picture
framing and fine art trade. Working as an artist
as well as a picture framer has enabled Peter to
offer an insight into picture framing seldom found
elsewhere. The Framework Gallery sells a range
of different handmade crafts for the home. We do
recommend our customers come in to view the
products as most of our crafts are one of a kind,
example pictures can only represent the types of
works that may be available.
