When you convert digital images into photos on canvas you bring the photos to life in a way that normal prints simply cannot achieve.

There can be a certain level of snobbery against the idea of printing a photo on canvas and yet the effect is simply startling. Sailors aboard ships would paint on canvas because it was an easily available surface on which to practice their skills. When the ships came into dock the canvas paintings would be sold. In time, canvas became the accepted surface for all artists regardless of the fact that some of the wealthy painters could afford to paint on parchment. Very quickly it became apparent that the texture of the canvas gave the picture, especially portraits, an added dimension that a smooth surface could never achieve.

These days it is possible to print on almost any surface and so you may ask the question: why do people enjoy looking at a photo on canvas? The simple answer is that the texture of the canvas gives portraits that have been taken with a digital camera the kind of effect that digital cameras fail to achieve when printed on paper.

Portraits shot with a camera that is loaded with 35mm film can convey a beauty that is not possible to repeat with digital photography but if the digital photos are transferred to canvas prints, then the effect is something else altogether.

Art is in the eye of the beholder
