Common Misconceptions About Giclée Canvas Prints

Since Giclée canvas prints are becoming more and more popular, there are some rumors popping up that create some common misconceptions about them that can turn would-be artists or buyers off. So, let’s go through a few of them so that you will know what is real and what is not when it comes to different misconceptions about Giclée canvas prints:

Myth: Giclée canvas prints do not hold any type of value.

Just because a canvas print was printed by a machine, does it mean that the artist took less time creating the work? Of course not. An artist can work in so many different types of mediums and digital art work is becoming one of the fastest growing art mediums around the globe. Printing art creations on paper, canvas, or any other medium is no different than an artist hand-painting or drawing them, as the artist took that time already to create a work of art to print. There are many websites out there that dispute the fact that Giclée canvas prints are not an art form – but tell that to the artist that spend hours or days creating that work.

Myth: Giclée canvas prints won’t last as long as hand-painted works.

If you have researched anything about canvas prints, from photograph prints to art prints, then you already know that the techniques used to create any type of canvas print is meant to last well over one-hundred years. The specialized archival inks are created to not fade or crack, the canvas is treated with specialized sealers to ensure that any environment won’t fade the work prematurely, and all of the research done on canvas prints have determined conclusively that canvas prints will last well over one-hundred years. So, for those critics to say that Giclée canvas prints won’t last like a paper print will is not true.

Myth: Giclée canvas prints are all flat and do not look like real paintings.

This couldn’t be further from the truth. The only reason that any canvas print would look flat or low quality is due to the printer or the inks used. This is why you need to choose only the best Giclée canvas printer that will use the highest quality inks, canvas and treatments to ensure that your prints look like the beautiful works of art that they are. The vast majority of Giclée canvas prints look like real, hand-painted works and are easily museum quality.

While there are many people out there who try to discourage artists from doing Giclée canvas prints, they make wonderful ways for digital artists to create some of the finest works of art. Before you think about listening to some of the nay-sayers, you should take a look at all of the different types of Giclée canvas prints that other artists have done and how beautiful they are. ZaZa Gallery is proud to work with artists to produce the best giclee canvas prints possible.

Why Canvas Prints Make the Best Gifts

It doesn’t matter what time of year it is, what the occasion is, or even if there is one at all. There is one universal fact about the best of gifts – that they are personal, unique, and long lasting. If you’re just looking for a personal gift then maybe you would go with a t-shirt or other garment that the person loves, or that reminds you of them. Clothing could be long lasting – it certainly has utility – but is it unique? No. Chances are your loved one will become one of thousands who will walk around in that very same shirt drawing the very same reaction.

Maybe then you just want to aim for unique. There’s nothing more unique than a gift designed with, say, a picture of your loved one on it. Or maybe their name? You could probably accomplish unique by crafting the gift yourself, perhaps as a knit hat, a nice drawing, etc. But as far as long-lasting goes how long will the average art or craft last?

There is one gift out there that meets all three of our criteria. It’s personal because you choose it’s look based upon the individual that will be receiving it. It’s unique because it’s crafted based on a split second in time that can never be duplicated. It’s long lasting because it is created with superb craftsmanship, and scientifically proven to stand the test of time – at least 100 years

We’re talking about canvas prints. If you’ve never seen one before then it’s probably hard to imagine something as simple as a digital photo on canvas being an impressive gift, but trust us. Anyone will be impressed. Canvas prints aren’t just photographs, putting them on a medium used classically for art gives them added depth and richness, almost bringing that still moment back to life. Photographs alone can evoke emotion, be it from a treasured memory or from the pure beauty of the image. And the best thing about them is no other person on the planet is going to have that exact image, or that exact memory that you are showing to the world – and never will.

Time and time again the canvas printing professionals at ZaZa Gallery have been told just how much the person receiving the gift loved it, or just how surprised they were with the quality, the uniqueness, of photos on canvas. The fact that even those in the business value the product enough to give them as gifts to their own grateful family members is proof enough that your loved one will feel the same way.
So, whether you’re buying for an anniversary, holiday, or just because, ask yourselves if your loved one will want a gift that is personal, unique, and long-lasting. We’re sure the answer is “yes”.

Canvas Prints – To Frame or Not To Frame

When it comes to larger photo prints, you always see them in beautiful frames with matching matting and glass to protect it from the elements. People will spend more on the framing than they will on the print itself sometimes, all in the name of protecting it from fading, wear, or worse. These frames look beautiful, but cost too much in many cases. Of course, all of that time, effort, and money could have easily been saved if the photo had just been printed on canvas.

Canvas prints have become extremely popular over the past few years proding research companies, such as Wilhelm Imaging Research, to do studies to see just how long a canvas print will actually last under normal conditions. They found that a canvas print will easily last over 100 years before it ever shows signs of fading or wear. This is at the very least 10 times the normal life of a paper print. Those accustomed to having their photos framed will suddenly be wondering if they have to frame canvas prints as well to preserve them like they would a paper photo.

You can frame a canvas print if you so desire, but keep in mind that canvas prints do not have to be framed. They are created with special inks and treatments to be hung as is when you get them home or to your office. This is the main draw of canvas prints is that they don’t require anything extra to be hung. When you get a canvas print from ZaZa Gallery</a, you can rest assured that it can be taken directly from it's packaging and hung up, without any other steps. Plus, there are so many beautiful ways to have your canvas print "wrapped" and provide a great frame all on it's own.

When you order a canvas print, you will find that there are so many great ways to wrap a print. Wrapping is how the sides of the canvas are printed and then wrapped, or stretched, over a frame. Gallery wrapping is extremely popular, as it offers a way to create a 3D feel to your picture by stretching the picture and wrapping the edges all the way around the frame. Of course, this type of wrap isn't for every picture, and you will need to determine if those 2-3 inches around the edges of a canvas print will be ok if they are wrapped around and lost to the front of the picture.

Mirror wrapping is another great option for those that don't want to lose anything on the face of the picture, as it takes a mirror image from the edges of the picture and wraps that around the frame. Mirror wrapping is a great way to keep everything in your picture, but you do have to be careful as you can come up with extra fingers or toes if you mirror edges of a photo that have too many fine details. Of course, there are black and white wraps as well for those that want a classic, clean look.

It doesn't matter what type of wrapping you choose on your canvas print from, you will know that you can simply take your print out of the wrapping and hang it directly on the wall.

But if you desire to have your canvas print framed, this is not unheard of or impossible. You should make sure that you check with local framing shops to see the prices of framing a canvas print, as they don't fit into a normal frame. The frames that canvas prints are stretched on normally measure around 1.5 inches, so the frame will have to accomodate this width.

Either way you choose to display your canvas print will offer you a wonderful way to show off your favorite photos and have a great focal point in any room.

Canvas Prints – The Progeny of Digital Photography Advances

It’s easy to see how digital photography has really changed the way people take pictures. It used to be that every single frame of film was precious, and unless you had an unlimited supply you would only take the shot if you were certain it was perfect. If someone blinked, the shot was ruined. Worse yet you wouldn’t even know until after you’d taken the film to be developed. Beyond that you had to worry about film speed, and every time you finished the roll (which wasn’t very long at all) you had to take the time to wind it and swap it out. What a hassle! When digital cameras came around only the wealthy and the most professional of photographers had them, but now almost everyone has a digital camera at some point. You can take a shot and immediately see if it came out as you wanted it or not. If someone blinks, you know on the spot and retake the picture. Or, you can just shoot 24 of the same and significantly up your chances of getting the perfect shot without worrying about running out of film.

Digital cameras have really taken the trouble and stress out of photography, and encouraged just about anyone to pick one up and start capturing memories. In fact, digital photography has become so incredibly popular that even editing and modification software can be found on almost any computer. Thanks to photo manipulation even so-so shots can be transformed into beautiful ones, and amateur photographers can shoot more like pros.

It would make sense, then, that as photography has grown and improved so has the methods for displaying it. For instance, special photo paper has always been used with film because it was the only surface that you could develop your shots on – not anymore. If you’re still only using traditional matte or glossy photo paper for displaying your prints then you’re living in a dead era in photography – there are so many more options now. As technology has progressed, more and more printing media has become acceptable for printing pictures. One such medium is Canvas.

A beautiful photograph is considered a work of art, and printing these photos onto canvas takes this art to a whole other level. Almost anyone can take their favorite photo and have it printed on a magnificent medium like canvas that makes their image come to life, creating a treasured display piece to truly be proud of. The specialized archival inks and unique texture of the canvas give your photos an incredible quality that cannot be duplicated on a traditional photo paper print. They’re a higher quality, have a much longer life span, and offer a rich and colorful look that makes them the center of attention in any room. Also, unlike photo paper prints, they’re ready to be hung on the wall right “out of the box”, without any concern for frames, mat, or glass.

Canvas prints are really suitable for any setting, be it in an office or your own living room. Additionally, the medium is suitable for just about any kind of photograph – portraits, landscapes, even motivational “posters”. To add to the beauty of the print, you can add a frame giving your canvas print an even more classy and beautiful look. Canvas prints can be used for decoration, displaying precious memories, advertising, or just showing off your photographic talents or exceptional artistic taste.

Since digital photography has made it so incredibly easy to capture beautiful images that can be instantly uploaded to your computer, you can send those images off to online canvas printers to be made into beautiful prints in just a few easy steps. You can edit or make changes to the photo yourself, or have a professional digital photo editor do it for you. Color conversions like to black and white or sepia are simple options, and you can even add colorful or simple borders and edges, even text, along with it.

When you’re ready to take your beautiful digital photographs and have them printed, check out what the professionals at ZaZa Gallery can do. We offer the highest quality canvas prints with the lowest prices around, producing thousands of museum-grade gorgeous canvas prints every year.

Changing The Way The World Sees Digital Photos On Canvas

Digital photography technology has changed the way that people take pictures and the way that they share them with their friends and family. Before digital photography, people weren’t so apt to take a lot of pictures because they just never knew how they would turn out. Plus, you only have a set number of pictures that you can take on a roll of film, a disposable camera, and so on – so you really can’t afford to waste them. Of course, film and disposable cameras don’t really cost a lot, but when you consider the difference in disposable cameras and film over time and the cost of digital photos and a camera, it’s easy to see why digital photography is cheaper. This is especially true when you consider that you can take hundreds of photos with one digital camera compared to only 25 or 30 at a time with a normal camera. Also, these photos can instantly be uploaded to your computer or to the web, and you have the ability to edit them as needed to provide the best possible photo.

Since digital images are extremely easy to share with family and friends, they make the perfect way to take photos in today’s world. But there will always be something extra special about having a hard copy to look at when you want – such as to hang on the wall, keep in your wallet or purse, or to display to family and friends. You will always have those wonderful photos that become your favorites that you want to show off to everyone. One of the very best ways to display these great photos is to have them transferred over to a canvas print.

Think about it, you can’t really hang up a digital photo on your computer like you can a painting. But, with canvas prints of your favorite photos you can. With the technology out there today, you can have those favorite digital photos transferred over onto a canvas print to turn them instantly into a museum quality work of art. The canvas that is used on canvas prints isn’t some cheaply made medium either, these canvases are the same type that are used in paintings and are made to stand up to the test of time. So, that perfect photo that you cherish won’t fade in a few years like one printed on paper, instead, when it’s printed on canvas, it will hold up for generations to come. To add even more value to it, you can instantly hang your canvas prints without worrying about framing or matting due to the type of frame that the canvas prints are on.

However, some people ask why you should want to put digital photos on canvas. They think that because they are easy to share, they can just look at them on their computer at any time. But it’s really hard to go through your whole hard drive to share simple photos with friends or family when they come over. Having all of your photos on your computer is a great way to keep them, but not a great way to show them off. Or they feel that their digital photos might not be good enough to create a museum quality print from. This couldn’t be further from the truth as there are so many great ways to enhance a digital photo to sharpen it or brighten the colors.

There is absolutely nothing around that can add elegance and class to your favorite photos like having them printed on canvas. It doesn’t matter if they are digital photos or if they are hard copies, when they are printed on canvas, they instantly take on a whole new life and create a wonderful piece of art that you will love for many years to come.

How To Add Canvas Prints Into Your Office Artwork

The next time that you are in a large corporate lobby, a hospital, your doctor’s office, a small business – or anywhere else that has hung decorations on the walls, think about how these decorations make you feel. Do the obviously cheap decorations give you a lot of confidence in the business or office? How about those expensive looking paintings? What about motivational posters? Each one provokes a different feel to the area, some good feelings and some bad. How do you want your visitors, employees, and customers to feel about your offices? Do you want them to think that your offices are cheaply decorated? That you don’t try hard enough to motivate your employees? Of course not – so how do you fix this?

Easy. You purchase canvas prints for your offices to help spice up your walls, the feelings in your offices, and give your office a wonderfully unique feel to everyone that comes in. Canvas photo prints are a beautiful way to show off high points of your business – such as your ribbon cutting ceremony on your new building, your company’s softball team winning a championship, or another wonderful event for your business.

And, canvas prints will stand up to the environment that your office has, from high humidity to sunlight to dust, they will stay beautiful and look expensive no matter what you throw at them. With their sturdy wooden frames, they also will stay strong on your walls since they are stretched tightly around the strongest frames possible. These prints are easily able to outlast any of those framed prints that you can get at any decorative store, and they will cost you the same or less.

Think about it, getting beautiful, museum quality art pieces to hang on your office walls while spending half of what you would at a department store. 8X10 canvas prints run around $25, and even larger prints can still be less than $100, yet look like they cost thousands.

So pull out those favorite corporate photos from events past that you want to show off but don’t know how to. Take a picture of your company team and create a beautiful canvas print to hang beside their trophy, take those scissors and ribbon from your ceremony and have a canvas print made of the photo to create a wonderful wall decoration that will inspire your visitors that you are doing well. Take down those motivational posters that are not motivating your employees, take down those prints that have been hanging there for years collecting dust and replace them with museum quality canvas prints that are of your employees, business, or other wonderful areas that will provide your employees a high quality to their offices and their work.

Think about it, you can easily spice up your offices, your employees, and how everyone that comes into your offices feels about you and your business for less than you could imagine with beautiful canvas prints. ZaZa Gallery can easily help you create exactly what you picture to help dress up your offices.
