The thing is, even though the look is unpretentious, the prices for art that fits in these design schemes usually isn’t. You might love to have an English pub sign in your den, but you’ll find the original ones hard to come by, and the copies quite expensive. A hand painted sign with colorful chickens and sunflowers on it for your French Country kitchen may look like it was painted by a country farm wife, but the price tag is anything but rustic. If you go to the art stores and hobby shops, you can find prints and posters that fit with your décor and are even affordable, but there’s something about a glossy print of a Provencal flower market that doesn’t quite go with the softer textures of your interior.
Luckily there’s a way to have art that will fit your décor for a reasonable price; art that has the texture and welcoming feel you’re looking for and that isn’t mass produced. Maybe you took lots of photos of pub signs the last time you visited the Cotswolds. Maybe you have gorgeous photos of fields of lavender or sunflowers that look like Van Gogh could have painted them. Maybe you took a close-up photograph of that humorous hand painted sign with the smiling tomatoes and carrots. Now, what if you could turn these photos into warm, welcoming art with the texture and feel you want? Canvas Press can help you do it by printing your photos on to canvas.
Why Canvas?
rinting on canvas not only gives your photos a warm, homey texture but lends them great artistic impact. A beautiful image on stretched canvas really leaps out at you, catching your attention in a way that simple photographs - no matter how large or how impressively framed - just cannot. The texture of the canvas, the way the colors and details show up all combine to make your photos look like unique, original art.
While canvas will give your photo an elegant, professional look, that’s not the only reason for print photo to canvas. Canvas offers a number of other advantages. An image printed to canvas does not require any protective glass, and makes it much easier to display. With the country look of your interior, a nubby canvas texture is much preferable to shiny glass. Another good point: when your photo is printed on canvas, you can have it ‘gallery wrapped’. In a gallery wrapped canvas, the printed area extends beyond the main image dimensions so that it can stretch over the sides of the wooden stretcher frame. This treatment means your art needs no frame and is ready to hang when you receive it.
Canvas is also durable and easy to care for. Canvas Press uses cutting edge printing technology known as giclee when printing photo on canvas. Innovative giclee printers transfer your photo on to 100% cotton UV resistant canvas using archival quality inks. This printing process assures that not only will the colors be true and the image and details sharp, but that it will last for generations. You can even clean your printed canvas using a damp sponge or cloth without damaging the color. It’s easier to care for than a real hand painted sign.
