Need some input from the brethern....customer has a large 46X51, handpainted on heavy paper, adheared to canvas-- piece of art that customer wants framed---no problem there, BUT isnt crazy about putting on stretchers(frame he got is a little too narrow for the heafty stuff I'd use)...my 1st thought is to glue to gator board(preservation isnt an issue) but not sure what adhesive(s) to use to do this over such a large surface.. another possibility is to fold the canvas over the edges of the gator board as a gigantic "hinge" but this would still allow the middle areas to float free of the backer and 'flapping in the breeze' just isnt on the menue.
Ideas please????
