Know Everything About Giclee Prints And Canvas Pictures

Canvas prints from photos are simply a delight. There are a number of elements that go into the making of a quality piece of wall art. Canvas pictures are no exception. You will need a high-quality original image to print from. There are professional standards and your home equipment may not be adequate for the task. Next you want to print the image on quality canvas. The use of quality canvas is essential not only to assure a lasting quality, but also so that the initial image is a quality one with color vibrancy and distinction. Another element necessary in creating canvas prints from photos are quality inks. Not only must the inks be able to match the existing colors in the photos, but you'll want ink that can last so your canvas pictures will retain the quality that you originally chose.

When choosing a frame for your canvas work you'll want a frame that is fitting, not only for your canvas pictures, but for your walls. The size of the frame will determine whether the wall appears crowded once the piece is hung. The frames size will also need to be appropriate for the print that is wrapped on it. If the frame isn't large enough or if it is too small some of your image may not be displayed. It is possible to resize most images digitally, but consider the appearance and the effect that resizing may have. Canvas prints from photos also require a solid frame to hold their shape. With canvas pictures the frame actually holds the canvas stretched out. This is an important detail and places a greater demand on the frame's structural strength. A solid material and construction are necessary.

The choice of canvas and ink used in the printing of your canvas pieces are two distinguishing characteristics that can help you choose a quality printer. Giclee prints are prints that are created with discerning quality standards. It is necessary that the canvas be of a lasting high quality grade and that the inks be of archival quality for the prints to be considered giclee prints. Archival quality inks are quality tested and proven to last for decades. Giclee prints are the quality standard for many museums and galleries worldwide. If your prints are giclee prints they are lasting prints.

The last element that will determine much about your canvas pictures is the way you chose to display them. Canvas prints from photos can be displayed on walls. They are often printed with bleed. Bleed is a technique in which some of the image is printed to wrap around the side of the frame on the canvas of your canvas prints from photos. This allows for a gallery style display of your canvas picture on any wall. Another option is the use of a floor stand. Depending on the style of your stand you may want to design a print without bleed as it may not be viewable when placed on a stand.
