Creative Guide
Image enhancement
If your image is not of the highest quality, whether it is an original or on disk, Blank Canvas has the technology to enhance it!
'Bitmapped', 'pixelated' or 'low resolution' document images can be rendered into stunning large format finishes, turning what you felt might be irretrievable work into a quality piece of large format artwork.
Fantastic pieces can be created from digital camera shots, negatives, transparencies, original artworks, or scans...
We can even manipulate your image to remove any unwanted facial blemishes or unattractive background objects such as lampposts and even people!
Your photographs can be transformed into pop art style prints to suit your chosen colour scheme for a small charge (see price guide). We can also print your photo canvas in black and white at no extra charge.
We will always email you a proof of your piece before we print it to make sure that you are completely happy with the effect.
Personalised messages
We can put personalised messages anywhere on your Canvas. The most popular places are at the top and bottom, where it wraps around the frame.
This creates a sentimental statement but is out of vision when viewed on the wall - personalised forever but always discreet for that extra touch!
There is an extra charge of £10 for this optional service.
Corporate
Architects, interior designers and property developers can also benefit from Blank Canvas when choosing furnishings for the environments they are designing.
If you have a particular colour scheme in mind for a project, Blank Canvas can produce a Canvas artwork to fit the colour specification using pantone swatches, even if it is from an image that you have chosen.
Blank Canvas are also in touch with talented photographers and artists with international media experience. They are available for any creative or off the wall projects that you may be considering.
Photographers
Photographers may also find our service of great interest.
The ability to offer clients large format Canvasses from a photo shoot to enhance their reception area/premises with pictures of their products/services can be a fabulous extra photographic service opportunity.
A wedding photograph can be turned into a Canvas portrait and soft tones or effects can be introduced for mood if required. Wedding photographs can then be displayed with a contemporary feel in large format.
Abstract Art
Canvas prints can be produced in any pattern or colour to suit your interior.
You can send anything with your colours on, for example a swatch of fabric or carpet or a wall paint colour swatch.
If you would like to use your own pattern and colours then simply send it to us by email or post.
If you would like us to design one for you (based on your choice of style and colour) then please contact us.
