Framed canvas print Framing art can make or brake the actual piece of art in question. While we all can admire the elaborate gold framing of the classical art in museums, it probably wont go over so well in our homes or offices!
If you have a painting or canvas print that you’re looking to frame, here is a few tips for you:
First and foremost figure out what kind of budget you are willing to spend. Most professional framers can be pretty pricey.
Use archival, museum glass, to prevent any aging, yellowing or reflections, which is distracting to the art. Photos also tend to have a more reflective surface if printed on luster paper. Printing on Canvas however, gives not only a beautiful and unique quality to your work, but also at www.chiccanvas.com, viagra is a guarantee of your new photo on canvas maintaining it’s color for over 100 years!
To print on canvas and then framing with museum quality glass is much smarter, because you’ll eliminate all the nasty reflections that ruin the finished quality of your piece!
Lastly, remember that less is more. Generally, staying away from gaudy frames is a smart choice. Thick simple and clean lines in your frames make your canvas art look modern in your home.

photo gifts We have all heard our dads talk shop about their old Nikons or Olympics and their screw back lenses. Eventually we see photos of their Yosemite Landscapes, (now) vintage Mustangs, or even pictures of our mom before they were married. All these photos are near and dear to Dad, and would make the perfect gift to the man who was responsible for your well being! Printing his vintage photos on canvas would mean so much to him!
Timeless canvas printing will make his photo look beautiful, and make him smile for years to come!

Canvas prints Our home is supposed to be our safe haven. It’s the place we go everyday after long hard days working, or even after fun days out with friends and loved ones (hopefully those days happen more often than not!).
This is why having a home that reflects who YOU are is essential.
Art in your home can inspire you on a daily basis, not to mention everyone else who you welcome into your home.
A few tips for making the art in your home reflect who you are as an individual:
Figure out what it is you love thats in your home. Is it a great couch, or a beautiful color on a wall? Pinpoint it!
Find the focal points in your home for art. A large wall in the living room, a gallery space along side a staircase, etc.
Find art and images that personalize your space. Did the picture you shot of the Eiffel Tower on vacation last summer make you proud of your new found artistic abilities? Work it!
Make large pieces, printed on canvas to place in those focal points you spotted in your home! Printing your personal photos on canvas creates a more tasteful environment. Frame it beautifully; usually in the world of framing, less is more!
Lastly, step back and admire all the new canvas prints warming your home!

Canvas photo prints Here at Chic Canvas, we have the luxury of seeing beautiful photography, and how the nice it looks when printed on canvas. Canvas prints make these images more unique, from a fine art finishing perspective, as opposed to just another photo print. With all the work we see, we feel obligated to show the world all the great stuff coming through our studio!
Here are some beautiful shots by Arthur Black.

Framed canvas print It can be difficult for photographers to decide between a a framed paper print and and a framed canvas print. However, there are positive characteristics about each. Larger prints tend to look better on canvas prints. Here are some reasons why:
Paper prints present a multitude of options to choose from. The paper you choose can enhance the photo in various ways. Clarity, detail, and color can all vary and possibly enhance the photo. Canvas does not present these choices. Printing a digital photo on canvas creates a softer look and less detailed look. Much like a canvas painting, canvas prints are meant to be enjoyed from far away.
Another factor to consider is the size of the print you ultimately want to create. Fine art photo paper can only reach a certain size, and requires expensive matting and framing. In the United States, the largest size photo you can print on fine art paper is 40/60 inches, since that’s the maximum mat board size. Going above that size requires custom matting and framing – a cost your customers may not want to incur.
Canvas prints, however, can be put on a stretcher bar and stretched to any size. You also have the option of many types of frames, which can create a unique and beautiful product for your customer.
Both canvas and photo prints must be sealed, though photo prints are most important. The inks from the photo printer have to be encapsulated and protected from the elements. To protect the print from humidity and other moisture, the seal must be waterproof. With canvas prints, the ink penetrates deep into the canvas, locking it in, while photo paper holds the ink on the surface. Thus, you may spend more money sealing and protecting a photo print, though it will still not last as long as a canvas one. For all of these reasons, enlarging photos on canvas is superior to enlarging photos on photo paper.
