How to improve your home décor.
July 17, 2008
If you have a love of photography, using photos on canvas can transform your home. Colours date and the new wave are moving towards neutrals and mono-chrome.
How then can you inject colour and personality that won’t date, or is not too costly to change? The ideal way is through photos on canvas. Framed photographs are no longer ‘trendy’ – many outlets are selling frameless prints on canvas to the masses, but by using your own photos on canvas, whether it’s of the family, the pet or the flowers in your garden, you can now create an individual, unique look for yourself.
In the comedy film ‘Legally Blond 2’, there is an ‘Andy Warhol’ style canvas of ‘Bruiser’ the Chihuahua – how fantastic to have your own pet immortalised in a print on canvas!
You can be as conventional or as quirky as you like, with such a choice of special effects available for a printed canvas, Gainsborough’s painting of ‘The Blue Boy’ is old hat, you can have the blue-ised boy, the green-ised boy or even the red-ised boy!
You can start building up a collection of original canvas photography to give your home a complete new colour and theme for every season.
