If you’re looking for canvas prints in NYC, look no further.
If you’re not looking for canvas prints, maybe it’s because you don’t know what they are! 😉
This post will talk about what canvas prints are and how to get them made.
What are canvas prints?
When an image is printed onto a canvas and then stretched, or gallery-wrapped onto a frame, THAT is a canvas print. Canvas prints make your photos look like original oil paintings!
Where are canvas prints usually used?
They are usually used in interior design projects, and though you can use stock images, the coolest thing to do (in our opinion) is to use personal photos.
Why would you want something printed on canvas?
Why not!?
A long, long time ago, before there were cameras, there were paintings. Well…there are still paintings, but what we mean is there used to ONLY be paintings. A painting of mom and dad would be on the wall (dad usually on a horse and mom knitting) and that was it. But just because it isn’t the dark ages anymore, doesn’t mean you can’t have “paintings” of you and your family, or even the dog, or the house, or the cat, or… You get the point..
It’s really cool, and definitely more affordable than commissioning a professional painter, plus, how are you going to get the whole family to stand perfectly still for an entire day while Michelangelo of Chelsea paints you? These are all valid points 😉
Here, take a look at one:
Now that you totally want a canvas print, let’s talk about how you get them done:
Step 1
Take or find a digital picture (JPEG, TIFF, PSD, etc.).
Step 2
Send us your picture: Email it to info@baboodigital.com or use our file upload form.
Step 3
Meet one of our awesome staff members to determine the details about your canvas print, like the depth of the piece. In the photo above, for example, the depth is severe, and it was done on purpose so that when it’s hung up it really makes a statement.
Step 4 (optional)
Hang it up.
Step 5 (really optional)
Take a picture of your new canvas print that you hung up and post it to Facebook saying something like “This is so cool!! #CanvasPrintsAreAwesome”
Instagram it, tweet it, text and email it.
Note: if you send us the picture you took of your canvas print hanging on your wall and you also want that made into a canvas print, the whole universe will collapse in on itself.
So, if you want canvas prints done in NYC, get in touch! We look forward to hearing from you. =)
