When it comes to displaying canvas artwork, two common options stand out: stretching the canvas over a wooden frame or mounting it on board. Each method has its pros and cons. The choice between stretching or mounting has an impact on the finished presentation of canvas prints and paintings.
If you have a rolled canvas, you have options, each of which are important considerations.
Do you dream of the day you finally transform a bland space into a stunning picture gallery wall? The sizes and layout for the display hold the key!
Just a few photos to display requires a decision to be made on how to present them in their best light.
Is your wall décor looking flat and uninspiring? Mount board may be the secret ingredient to change your framed wall art and treasured photos into an immersive viewing experience.
Do you have old photos that you want to show their age with deep colours and a textured finish? Printing to canvas could be the way to go. And you may be able to do it yourself with a standard inkjet printer.
Photo frames have multiple purposes. One of the more popular uses is to preserve milestones such as achievement certificates and other certifications and to make them presentable.
Getting a story published in a regional or national newspaper is worthy of a memento. How long it lasts and how good the quality is preserved for depends on how it is printed and framed.
Odd-sized art, be it postcards, vintage photos, posters, or a magazine cut-out, can pose challenges for framing. The only easy way to combat the problem is to have the art custom framed. That can be pricey.
Ever look at the Instagram shots of walls that are laden with gorgeous art and wondered how in the world people can afford such majestic art displays in their homes?
Mount boards are sold in standard sizes and you can vary the openings/apertures on them to suit your preference. Some framers provide the option of cutting the mount board to the specific dimensions that you require, others may not. It depends on the equipment they have to hand, and whether they have the expertise to provide a tailored mount cutting service.
