We get asked this one no end of times, obviously it can be a little confusing if you have never purchased a photo on canvas before. It is quite simple this one though, a without bleed is when the image is only on the face of the canvas with complete white edges on the sides of the frames. As you can see from the image when we say without bleed we mean without bleed. Our frames are made individual to each order so they can be made so precise by are experienced joiners. We are the only company who makes our frames to each order with precise cutting instruments that allows us to cut our frames mm perfect every time, many other companies leave nasty overhang of the image usually a few mm or more on the sides which results in a poorly finished canvas, That was the way canvas prints were made in the past but we look to future and we guarantee your without bleeds will come out as perfect as you see here. We are the only company to show our canvas prints in detail, why? because we have nothing to hide, are canvas prints have evolved into items of beauty that we are all proud of.

Stretching and framing canvas prints is very delicate process and you have to have an eye for perfection. We use some very simple tools to stretch your canvas buts its more to do with the staff that create your canvas to how well it comes out. When were founded seven years ago we used nothing more than are pair of pliers, a Stanley knife and a staple gun from or local DIY shop.
In fact there is nothing wrong with using these items, we could still use these to make a perfect canvas print it just may take a little longer and need a bit more patience. We upgraded our workstation when demand grew larger, to be honest back then we all ended up with blisters on our fingers from the manual staple guns and really that’s all that’s changed in the tools we use. It’s down to the individual stretching to make sure it’s lined up prefect, stretched as tight as it will go and make sure everything is neat and tidy. These tools are important for canvas printing but the most important factor of canvas printing is the base canvas, the frames, the inks, the software used and the most important the large format printers. If you want to have a go at stretching your own canvas we even offer 30% for unframed canvas prints, so why not have ago yourself then you really can say you have truly created a bespoke piece of canvas art all we say is take your time and be careful, It’s the way we have done it for seven years just taken out time and concentrate on the job in front of us there’s no pint I rushing a job like this it will be hung on a wall for years to come they have to be perfect.
Photographs to canvas
23/02/2010
We often get real photos in the post but due to our state of the art equipment you would never be able to tell that they were scanned in. All original photos are scanned it at 600 dpi to ensure every detail is preserved. We then open the image in Photoshop CS4 size the image up in its original ratio ( For example 3”x4” to 15”x20”) we then check over the image removing any blemishes surface scratches, basically remove any unwanted mess that may have occurred on the original image. This is one we have created for a client, the original image was 7”x9” and the client wanted a standard size of 20”x25” which cost just £58.99 but they were bought during double discount so took the cost down to just £47.19 each with FREE UK delivery, Our client wanted two of these one for herself and one for her parents as you can see you would never be able to tell they came from a hard copy photo. So if you have a hard copy photo don’t hesitate to get in touch and see what we can do for you, transforming your photo to canvas is what we do best.
