Photos On Canvas Choices

a wedding couple in the church

When it comes to giving photos on canvas as an wedding anniversary gift, you have so many options. From our smallest size at 30×30 cm at only £29 to 200×150 cm at £389 and a lot of sizes in between that, you are spoilt for choice when it comes to getting the right size photo canvas wall art. The photos on canvas can have its original colour or it can be transformed into black and white, sepia, colour splash or posterise.

The sepia print above is a great example; it gives the photos of canvas a bit of a dramatic and serious look. For the less serious married couple perhaps a pink posterise print is more suitable! You can also personalise the back of the canvas frame with text saying “Happy Anniversary! Love Lisa”. Photo canvas wall art in the right size and colour will really impress the married couple.

Canvas Printing Advice

Many companies providing canvas printing use poor print technology and materials that can allow the canvas to damage easily. Tearing due to paper based canvas, poor ink jet print quality allowing scuffs to damage the ink surface, loose fitting, cracking prints are the usual pitfalls. And then they take at least two weeks to deliver it to you. At Photo Canvas we give you high quality printing with great customer service and quick delivery.

We guatantee the best quality:

- You will get perfect likeness in print quality, long lasting.

- You cannot tear our canvas as it’s real woven fabric.

- You cannot scuff our canvas as print penetrates deep into yarn.

- It will be stretched as tight as a drum.

- Our print does not crack on edge of frame.

- We offer Next Day Delivery.

And, because we use the original ‘wedge’ method you can maintain a tight stretch of your canvas over the years by tapping the corner wedges if needs be. That is the correct way to keep the canvas firm! Many companies have removed the wedge (or don’t even know about it) from their production to reduce their costs meaning canvas is not tight as a drum. We wedge all our canvasses. Wedges are vital! Our service to our customers is simple and straightforward – we listen to you, we follow instructions, we raise concerns, we meet your expectations and we are easy to talk to.

Most suppliers offer ink jet prints that will crack on the corners. We sue dye sublimation and do canvas printing (real woven heavy 500gsm fabric) using fibre deep printing with dye sublimation. This means the ink fuses deep into the canvas and is impossible to crack. Ink jet print means ink spray lands on the surface of the plastic material. It cannot be stretched because it dries firm. So make sure you do not order ink jet photo canvases if you want to avoid many pitfalls like the cracking edges. For
high quality prints order from Photo Canvas.
