Tear Down Those Posters and Get Art Canvas Prints

Many people choose to decorate their homes with posters depicting their favourite artwork. It is a great way of bringing the beauty of art into the home at an extremely affordable price. However, posters do not show off these majestic art works to their full potential. They are difficult to frame, can easily become damaged and do not display the same kind of dynamism as art on canvas. Art canvas prints provide a viable alternative to posters without compromising the integrity of the original piece of artwork.

Although, like posters, art canvas prints are reproductions of pieces of artwork, but the difference in quality between them is huge. While posters may last a few years if they are framed, canvas prints could last a lifetime. The canvas itself is generally stretched over a sturdy wooden frame, helping them stand up to years of wear as well as making them look extremely stylish and easy to hang.

Art canvas prints are also printed using extremely high quality inks. Because posters are not usually expected to last a long time, they are generally printed with inferior quality inks. This means that, over time, the colours in the images can fade and distort. They are not water resistant and can be damaged by UV light. Fine art prints are printed using the finest quality inks using techniques that will ensure that they withstand moisture, light and general wear and tear.

Art canvas prints are also far more collectable than posters due to their quality and durability. They are an excellent option for those wanting to start an art collection on a limited budget. Prints are sometimes made in limited edition runs, meaning they can actually increase in value over time. Artisan Galleries have hundreds of art prints for sale, from upcoming and established artists at a price to suit everyone.
