The Canvas Craze

Imagine some of your favourite photos. A castle on a hot summer’s day. Your children playing in the paddling pool. A close up of a butterfly. A sunset beach that you took in Florida. You are proud of these photos and many more like them. You save them on your computer and every now and again you have a look at them until one day you forget all about them. Some of your best images may just get viewed more often because occasionally you have printed them out and put them in a photo frame. One or two of them may even get enlarged and be framed professionally. These are the best out of maybe six or seven thousand photos that you keep and add to on every holiday.

Your photos deserve better than this.

Now imagine a large canvas on your living room wall. In pride of place above the fireplace. Three elephants walking across the horizon with a burning red sunset in the background. No this is not an oil painting or a watercolour by some famous artist but this is your favourite photo you took while on holiday in Kenya last year. Yes this is the same photo, enlarged, framed and printed on canvas! This is the latest way of showing off your photos by literally turning them into paintings.

Amazingly it is not that difficult to do. Most cameras nowadays have a very high resolution which enables very large prints to be made without any loss of detail.

A great way to display photos and a very modern and stylish addition to any room. Photo Canvas pictures are catching on quite quickly and are being seen in many Rich and Famous properties all over the US and now here in the UK.
