While home printers and digital image editing software has advanced at an almost alarming rate, the printing of canvases is still not something the vast majority of us can do at home unfortunately. However, it is possible to have your photo printed on a stretched canvas using high quality materials and the latest printing processes – the end result is a great looking and entirely unique piece of canvas art for your living room or any other room in the home.

Framed prints have long been the item of choice for displaying family photographs. The variety in size of canvas prints means that they can be used to show off photos of individuals or the entire family unit while ensuring that the picture is recognisable and incredible looking. Extra large canvas prints can even be created on canvases of up to five metres in length or you can print a single image over the space of two or more canvases to create an artistic and unique look.

Multi canvas prints offer an even more unique but equally exceptional looking option. Triptych canvases are among the more traditional way to do this, using a row of three canvases to display one picture. While multi canvas prints may not be ideally suited to photographs of people (the gap between canvases has a tendency to cut through the people subject of the photo) they are perfect for landscape shots and panoramic shots.

You don’t have to stick with the use of your photo in its original state either. Some canvas art services will work to convert or reproduce your image into black and white or by applying a selection of other artistic processes to them. Among the most appealing of these design options is the conversion of a standard image into a pop art representation of that image; a fun and unique way to proudly display your photo.
