Step 2: Select wood
Measure your picture and draw out a rough frame schematic, then go and find some beautiful hardwood lumber.
I wanted a rich, deep brown wood to bring out the brownish bits of the oil painting. We went to PALS in Oakland, CA, and got sustainably harvested Chechen, a Central American hardwood. The boards were planed but needed to be edged, so I made sure to select boards wide enough to accommodate my needs after the edges were trued.
