Photos Printed On Canvas Make Unique Gifts

By Evangeline Lindsey


There are many ways to decorate a home or workplace beautifully with pieces of art. In addition to hand-painted works that have been framed, you could also hang photos printed on canvas. Photographs which you love or personal pictures, such as images from your travels or family portraits, can be enlarged, and the final result is likely to be striking and captivating.

While you can simply have an image printed so that it closely resembles the original photograph, it is also possible to have a subtle effect applied, which will make your reproduction look even more like a painting. There are all kinds of theme possibilities - some people even choose to have portraits of their favorite pets created.

Many parents have the art pieces their children produce framed, as it captures a time in their development that is gone all too soon. With modern canvas printing techniques, it is easy to create reproductions which will last a lifetime, and these will add character and a beautiful, homely feel to any space.

When you have a photograph or drawing which you would like to have converted, you will naturally want to obtain an idea of what the final product will look like before going ahead with the process. You can obtain a digital mock-up of the final product usually, which will give you an idea of what to expect.

While artworks printed on paper are safe when kept behind glass in a frame, they can easily be torn or bent if they have been removed to be transported. Canvases are generally more durable, and you can easily have a canvas removed from its wooden frame if necessary.

A service which prints photographs on canvases and stretches images to fit various sizes of frame can provide you with multiple options for how your final product is created. You could choose to have the image stretched so that the perpendicular edges of the canvas are also covered. Alternatively, you could leave this blank if you intend to have the final product framed.

When you need a unique wedding gift or other occasional gift for someone special, photos printed on canvas and framed make creative and personal gifting ideas. These are ideal gifts for newlyweds who are starting a home, as it well help them to create an intimate, personal space.
