How Do You Print on Canvas? - If you’re considering going out to a local craft store to purchase what you need to DIY canvas prints from home, we would really love for you to reconsider. Depending on the supplies and technique you follow, your DIY canvas print will crack and fade over time and the colours in the photo will be dull and lifeless. This post looks at the benefits of choosing a quality photo printing company to print your photos on canvas and includes a short video that takes you inside our Toronto-based workshop to see a Canvas Print in the making.
Are Canvas Prints Waterproof? - Are you thinking about displaying your canvas print in a room with high humidity, like the kitchen or bathroom, or do you plan on submerging your photo art into the depths of Lake Muskoka? Assuming you’re not planning on decorating the hull of your boat, some photo printing companies offer canvas prints that are more than up to the task of being displayed in rooms with high humidity. Make sure to do your homework though, as some companies make their frames from plywood or by using cheap frame kits that can bow and warp over time, even in the driest of conditions. Posterjack custom frames are made using 1.5”-thick, sturdy Grade A Canadian basswood, so they’ll be more durable in humid conditions. Check out this blog post to learn more.
