Canvas Printing Leaves Lasting Memories!
Some moments are just so special you want to capture them forever and canvas printing gives you the opportunity to do just that. For centuries artists have painted on canvas, an extremely durable and uniquely flexible fabric. When canvas is stretched across a frame, it creates a unique tension that displays paintings to perfect advantage. Canvas also lends its own unique texture behind the image leading to a fascinating play of light across the artwork. Now, with advances in modern printing and manufacturing standards, your digital photographs can be printed on canvas, creating a long lasting and beautiful method for displaying your most precious memories.
Choosing a photograph to use for canvas printing is a matter of resolution and composition. In order to print well there are minimum requirements for resolution for each size of canvas. Basically, if you have a digital camera of 5 mega-pixels or better and you take photographs at the fine or best setting, any photograph you take will translate to canvas well. If your camera does not have that high of resolution then you will need to pay attention to the resolution of the individual photograph. Basically any picture over 2 meg will be great, but most that are between 700kb and 2 meg are workable. If in doubt, ask advice from the printer.
Once you have narrowed down the photographs you will be choosing to those that are a high enough resolution you can begin the process of choosing the perfect photo based on composition. Canvas printing will embed the image on a single sheet of canvas and then stretch it over a wooden frame or scaffold. This means that the outer edges of the photo (up to 1.5 inches) will be wrapped around the frame. If you choose a photo with a face at the upper edge you might end up with part of that person’s head wrapped around the edge of the finished product. Be sure to choose a photo with a good border.
Canvas printing is the perfect way to capture memories!
Canvas prints are perfect to save those wedding, family gathering or amazing holiday memories. The unique properties of canvas lend to depth in the image, making it a true focal point in any room you choose to hang it. If you want your memories to last and to be displayed beautifully, there is no better way to cherish them than having them printed in canvas.
