Gallery Wrap Canvas & Giveaway!
This is one of my favorite pictures of our two beautiful daughters!
It was one of those shots that just “happened”. We didn’t set out to take pictures, they were just enjoying each other’s company on the front porch one afternoon while I had my camera. At first it started like this
but after a few tries I got “THE” shot! you know, the one that you think “WOW I need to blow this up and put it on the wall” kind of shot.
I knew that I not only wanted this shot on my wall, but I thought it would be fun to have in a gallery wrapped canvas. I have always loved gallery wraps, but I’ve never had one myself. That’s when I found Canvas on Demand!
CanvasOnDemand.com can turn your photos into priceless art.
I uploaded my picture to their easy to use site, and in less than a week, they sent me back a stunning canvas of MY photo. The quality was phenomenal–it was even better than I had expected and in fact the portrait is now hanging in my new office in a spot of honor. It looks like I paid for a professional photographer and piece of art.
Imagine my excitement when this arrived at my house in just SIX short days!
I carefully removed it from all of the wrapping and was in awe of the size and quality!! I had to take a picture with Cullen sitting next to it, so you could see the size!
The corners are beautifully wrapped nice and tight!
Canvas On Demand offers your choice of PhotoRealistic (my choice), bringing your photo to full life, or Pixel Painting (brush stroke) , which appears to have been produced by delicate strokes of an artist’s brush. I then opted for Thick (1.5″) Gallery Wrapping (where the canvas is stretched over a wooden frame so that the edges of the material are drawn around it).
I had already converted my picture to black and white but Canvas on Demand can do that for you, as well as several other retouching services
Have questions or need help with your order? Not only does Canvas On Demand do a supreme job, but they have some of the best customer service I have ever experienced. They reply to your emails with lightning speed. I even received the following email from them just a few hours after placing my order:
submitted does not fit the exact proportions for
the size of canvas you have chosen. In order to
assure a good fit, we are going to make your
canvas a custom size of 16×24 instead of
16×20. We will do this at no additional charge
to you. Our goal is for you to be completely
satisfied with the finished product, so we just
wanted to keep you informed of this
modification. We will get started
immediately. We will do a great job for you!
And a GREAT job they did!! I am just in love with my canvas! I can’t wait to place another order, or two or three!! Wont these make GREAT gifts?! With Christmas quickly approaching I think I have the PERFECT gift in mind for a few people on my list!!
I love how you can see it walking down the hallway!?

I have wanted one of these for so long. I would have a gallery wrapped canvas of the most recent favorite shot of my boys. My 15yr old son was actually smiling, instead of smirking. HA

That is such a great photo! The best ones always happen when you least expect it though don't they? I suppose I would get a photo of hubby and I together. I have a ton of photos of him hung up around the house, but we have so few of the both of us, it would be a good excuse to take one. He is in the Navy and is always on deployment so we don't have a lot of time for picture taking when he's home.

I love your picture! I am very impressed with the job Canvas on Demand did, I've never used them before and it looks great.

That photo is way cool. If I was to win the $50 credit I would chose the wall art option. I would want a photo of my kids skateboarding, side by side like the wll art stuff. I have over 1000 photos of each of them done by a professional photographer that I've yet to use. pwejones@gmail.com

Just found the link to your blog. What a great idea- we have the cutest picture of our three kids (on our little blog) that would be perfect on canvas! What a great idea for a gift too.

I'd most likely choose a collage of tons of my family members. I'm usually the one with the camera since I carry it everywhere so I've taken TONS. 🙂

I would love to have one of the pictures I just took of my daughter (her five year pictures) done just how you did yours, photo realistic and with the thick edge. Yours turned out beautifully!

What a beautiful picture of your daughters and now it really does look like its hanging in a gallery. I love that you put it where you did!
I love the photo splitz– I have several pictures of the beaches of Cape Cod and light house scenes that would make for great photo splits on our living room wall.

My grandmother is in her final stage of Alzheimer's and I recently found a generational photo of her, my father and me (all parents of only children) that I would love to turn into a canvas for my father so that he is always reminded of the love that he has had from both his "girls". I've bookmarked the website just in case. Gorgeous work they do. I would probably get the framed black picture as it would be more stark and expressive.
