There is an incremental value added when you get a photo printed on canvas. Today the art world is stunned with the result that one can achieve with the giclee form of printing that is only two decades old. However, within this short spell there have been several changes in this new form of the transfer of digital photo to canvas. The art of scanning has improved significantly while both the printer and the printing inks have also undergone some great changes for the better.
Today’s giclee prints on canvas are more durable and due to an improvement in the technique used, the value of the prints is also higher. There’s little doubt that today’s prints on canvas are almost as perfect as the original. The result is there for all to see as more people have now begun to appreciate true art while earlier affordability was an issue.
There is now an impressive market in the business of printing photo on canvas. There are several reasons for this. There are new types of substrates and this makes it relatively easy to meet the requirements of different kinds of customers. The canvas is also available in different textures such as pure cotton and the cotton poly. You can also go for acid free coatings besides base.
One of the most important reasons of course is the cost factor. The transfer of photo to canvas is marginally costlier compared to paper. However, the artist can now resell art at a considerably higher value as compared to the prints on paper. The other advantage is that since you don’t need to cover a giclee with glass the total cost also comes down considerably thereby making the product affordable.
