Lighting for Your Beautiful Canvas Prints

Right lighting around your favourite canvas prints can make it the star of your room. The considerations include the amount of natural light as well as artificial lighting options like creative ceiling pendants, chandeliers to recessed lighting.

Here are some tips to light up your masterpieces:

Natural Light: Natural light often gives a soft illumination to art. If you have large windows or plenty of light in your living or work spaces, the details of your art prints will likely show up beautifully in natural daylight. 

The natural landscapes, family portraits on canvas, flora, pets on canvas – all are very good candidates to go on the walls where the natural light is in abundance.

 Recessed Lighting and Ceiling Lights: Many homes have recessed lighting, as well as adjustable dimmers, which work well for lighting artwork. Recessed lights shine down from above to focus attention on wall canvas. These types of spotlights are often placed near fireplaces or above large, blank central walls. Cityscapes, Black & White art work, night shots on canvas – all can be very well showcased here

 Lightweight Table and Floor Lamps: Modern table or floor lamps provide another cost effective option to illuminate your canvas prints. Move a floor lamp close to the photo print to bring attention to the beautiful colors and creative themes. Or, choose minimalist table lamps with a soft flow to complement photo prints.  Family portraits in black & white or in not so sharp colors are best suited with this lighting

 Modern Track Lighting: Track lighting offers an elegant and luxurious way to light large, open spaces. Place large canvas photo prints near track lighting for a steady, consistent source of illumination. Track lighting often appears in kitchens and libraries.

 Creative Chandeliers: If you love artistic, modern decor, choose creative chandeliers to accentuate the beauty of your photo prints. Consider chandeliers in modern materials and simple colors.

Mirrors & Lighting: Mirrors with ceiling lights can make for a dramatic effect and can create a ‘wow’ factor in the way canvas art becomes center of attraction in your room. Large mirrors have the ability to give a feel of much larger space to your room and a right picture on the canvas can accentuate the effect dramatically

Type of Light:  White vs Warm white vs Different colored lights can play an equally important role in how your canvas print shines through in your room. So, choose them wisely keeping in mind the décor and personality of the room.

Hope the above tips help you find the perfect Balance of Wall Art and Lighting and Brighten up your Homes!

Timeless Memories on Canvas

Photos on Canvas can be a great way to capture those timeless and magical moments of your lives. These canvas prints can be a celebration of life, a celebration of your family and a great way to bond!

If you are looking for some great ideas to capture and show these moments on a canvas print, we have following recommendations:

1. Generations-in-a-canvas: One of the most cherished photos is the one that spans 3 or 4 generations e.g. One of you, Mom, Nonna and your angelic princess done on her OR Nonna’s birthday! A multi-canvas variant can include a single shot of each of you( in similar costume and pose may make it unique!) on 4 panels!

2. Siblings-on-Canvas: An interesting way to decorate your kid’s room or the family room is to have a set of photos of your kids at particular age milestones (e.g. 1st, 5^th and 10^th birthdays).  You can again make it an eye-catcher by getting kids to wear same dress/outfit! It can be great fun with guests trying to figure who is who?

3. Kid-Milestones-On-Canvas: For a single kid, one of the most wonderful way to do a canvas is to capture their different milestones on a set of panels. You can make it more fun by shooting the photo exactly on same day(~similar time) against a common background – it will be a beautiful set reminding how your kid has grown year on year! Alternatively, a collage of key milestone years on a canvas can make for a great art work

4. Costumes-On-Canvas: Your kid’s interests are likely to change every year – from the superheroes he cherishes to the sports he plays. A great way to capture those phases in their lives would be to take their photos in those costumers or sportswear and juxtapose them next to each-other!

Canvas Print Ideas for the Sports Fanatic in You

A friend of mine is a big tennis fan and in 2014, he was completely bowled over by Stan Wawrinka’s title run at the Australian Open.  What stayed with him were the lines tattooed on Stan’s arm from the great Irish poet Samuel Beckett
“Ever tried. Ever failed. No matter. Try again. Fail again. Fail Better”
The next thing to adorn his wall was a canvas print with those beautiful lines in the same font as on Stan’s!
We all have those friends and family members who live for “the big game” and receive game alerts straight to their phone even as they sleep. Here are some canvas gift ideas that are sure to be an “ace” and make you a winner in their eyes:
