Spring Fair Visit

Thought we'd just give you all a quick update on goings on here.

We enjoyed a very good and thought provoking trip to the Spring Fair at Birmingham's NEC last Sunday (6th Feb). We obviously made straight for Hall 3 and the 'Art & Framing' section. There was plenty to see and more than one thing caught our eye, that's for sure! We spent quite a while on one stand in particular and without giving anything away, we have come back from the NEC with much to think about and plenty of research to do. As any news of developements becomes available we will keep you updated. But we are very much in the research stages of a new project at the moment, exciting times!!!

Other than that our framing services are becoming increasingly popular here. We offer a comprehensive range of frames and we are always happy to chat through any framing requirements that you may have either now or in the future. Not to mention our canvas print services that keep us busy too!

Oh yes. . .  and don't forget you can follow us on Twitter and also keep up to date with news from PhotoArt GB Ltd at www.twitter.com/BigEmptyWall

Keep looking back here for updated news from us.
