If the picture frame has already been coated or is laminated prior to your having it, the simply sand the surface lightly with a fine sandpaper. This provides a little coarseness for the paint to adhere to. Next you paint it. Keep in mind that you should apply light coats from about 12 inches away from the frame. Follow the product guidelines to allow the right amount of time to add the next coat.
If this project is consisted of unfinished or stained, you need to provide a primer (I would prefer shellac) before you paint it. Otherwise, the paint will soak into the pores of the wood. Then it will have to be sanded in between coats, to provide a professional look.
Good luck.
