1.)When you display your artwork, Would you rather have it mounted on a white matboard or black?
2.)If you photograph it..White background or black? Just wondering. I use both settings depending on the mood im trying to set. |

I found that with my first project, there was a section that had a white edge, and it was on a black mat board, it appeared to be sitting at an angle, though it was completely level. I think it was more the image than the mat board, but a girl in my class put black paper behind the picture, and then mounted it on a white mat board, her picture looked fine. (it was a retouch project so all of the images were the same).
