In this video you can follow my 5 simple steps to packing almost any painting perfectly.
I show you the tools and materials you will need - including an ingenious way to protect the front of virtually any artwork.
Easy steps include:
1. wrapping with 2 sheets of foam wrap
2. cutting a piece of polycarbonate roofing sheet
3. wrapping in bubble wrap
4. finishing with pallet wrap
5. taping the whole thing up to finish
Plus I give you examples of what my Certification paperwork looks like, tips on tape, paying attention to the corners and other useful nuggets of wisdom based on years of shipping valuable artworks on canvas.

To comment on the bubble wrap; I once sent an oil painting wrapped in acid free brown paper with bubble wrap and I had the bubbles in. When it got to it's destination, the varnish had taken on the circles on the bubbles. Luckily I was able to correct it for them when I was in their area a couple weeks later. So yea, no more bubble wrap faced in, and I put a piece of cardboard between the first layer and the bubbles :p

Great vid! :) Of course you have to see the expenses of the packaging in relation to the piece. If I were to send out my paintings, which are smaller scale, and with a totally different price range, that polycarbonate sheet will already be quite expensive. But I reckon either a wooden board or 2-3 layers of cardboard might work too. Also love the added information about the certificate. Would love to see a whole video on details like that, the paperwork and personalizing the delivery of the product to the customer.

The plastified card that they use for outdoor signs and election posters works much better than cardboard. It's much more rigid, but the same weight and doesn't absorb moisture. Very cheap too (during election season!)

Realy enjoing your videos! I just started painting at Christmas this year and felt in love with it. You are one of my only 2-3 channels/artists (that I actually filtered out of hundreds so far) that fit my personal taste of what is appealing and colorfull abstract art that I enjoy watching and learn some. I'm working as sign maker and Im wrapping a lot too and so far I can tell that you should devenetly turn the bubbles to the inside because they pop much faster from the "bubble side". The foil layer where they "sit on" is a little bit thicker than the foil of the bubbles itself and helps to protect them from popping. If you want to upgrade your safety for a little price it might be another good option to buy some of these blue edge guards (those looking like pool noodles) they aren't expensive and give a little extra safety for the edges. But in the end if everything went fine for the last years it's not necessary. "You don't need it until you would have needed it" if that makes sense... (English isn't my mothers speech😅)

Love your demonstration. I also do large paintings for acrylics but I also do watercolor at another 11x17 with a 3-4” May around. I was making crates for everything to ship from old pallets (which I got for free as toss offs). I do use bubble wrap and newsprint or vellum directly on top of the painting; definitely cardboard then. What you do makes sense; less expensive to ship than crates which FEDEX/UPS won’t take. I have to use private truckers when I crate which can be expensive. I recently found some moving companies will help if they have a run to the city you need. But you have to make sure you have some One on the other end. Thank you for the presentation and not drawing it out. Cheers 🍻

It's good to see somebody from the UK. My art is not overly large, but I do use foam wrap, bubble wrap and then I use really thick bin bags. I think maybe a polycarbonate sheet is a bit over the top for me, but I can understand that if you are sending abroad you need that extra security. Regarding the bubble wrap thing, I have always wrapped with the bubbles inside and haven't had any problems as far as I know because the foam wrap is protecting the painting. I think in future though I will wrap with the bubbles on the outside. I sent a resin piece out one time and was so worried about it that I put some thin card against it which will sort the problem. One really needs to think about the cost of packaging, which is quite high when you take it all into account, particularly the foam and bubble wrap. Just have to ask a lot for shipping I guess. Thanks for sharing your tips.

To add my 2 cents about bubble wrap, I only recently learned it's bubbles out for the better protection. Who knew? I believe it deflects the impact of force away from the item you're trying to protect.

Hello, I really loved this video, especially how simple the steps were. I've also just finished watching your video on packing large pieces for shipping in crates. I was wondering if you could please do a video on packing medium to large mixed-media art pieces ( art work has slight protrusions about an inch from the surface of the canvas) and how best to protect them. Also what are the merits of using packing peanuts instead of bubble wrap? Thank you so much.

Thank you for taking the time to make this video, you have just solved so many issues for this big canvas painter! I have been trying to figure out how to ship without using expensive crates/professional crating services or make custom sized boxes! (Wood is outrageously expensive here in the US right now with the supply shortages, this is BRILLIANT!) Question: how do you instruct your clients to OPEN this package without ripping the canvas with a blade or cutting tool? I know the next set of questions sound silly and obvious to ask but I am constantly surprised about the damage I have seen with clients opening boxes with cutting tools. Could one accidentally cut through the backside far enough into the front and rip the canvas? Do you place a label indicating which side to open from? Would you recommend sending an email to the client with instructions on how to safely open this kind of packaging? Again, it’s obvious to artists what to do but I want to provide safe unwrapping instructions to a potential first time buyer. Thank you for your time and job well done explaining this process, thanks!

Hi Robin. Easy answer is to send them a little video from your phone! I always recommend they cut with a blade across either of the flat surfaces. All they need avoid is the sides. That's it! Nothing more. Explain that in a video from your phone and that should be all you need! Hope that helps and thanks for watching!
