Naomi’s framing career began when Lyttelton’s former owner offered her the chance to step into a new craft in 2021. She embraced the opportunity wholeheartedly, quickly developing a reputation for meticulous attention to detail and her keen eye for perfection. She has dedicated herself to the art of framing with skill, enthusiasm, and unwavering precision.

As the workshop’s full time artwork-assembling specialist, Naomi is most often found in the gallery’s workshop. With steady hands and a passion for excellence, she brings customers’ artwork to life, ensuring every piece is finished to the highest standard.

Jeannie has a background in both graphic design and fine art, having completed a BA Hons degree in Fine Art. She initially explored her creative interests through design but later transitioned to pursue a part-time role in the bespoke framing sector, which she began in 2017. This shift allowed her to merge her passion for art with a practical skill set while providing support for her ongoing artistic practice.

Jeannie’s work in bespoke framing involves a creative, hands-on approach to a wide variety of tasks. She is actively involved in assembling custom framing solutions, where each project requires an unique approach. Her customer-facing role is key in helping customers decide creatively on the best options for their artworks.

Lyndi first joined Lyttelton as an experienced framer in 2013. Fine Art is her specialism.

When not cutting mounts and assembling artworks into frames, she can also be found working in a fine art and archive paper conservation studio.

Lyndi can be booked for specialist consultations.
