Printing On Framed Canvas

The Art of Professional Framing

Displaying your cherished photos or valuable artwork on a framed canvas is a timeless way to enhance your living space. At Frame Today, we specialise in printing and framing canvas pieces to ensure they look stunning and are protected for a lifetime. Let’s explore the steps involved in printing on framed canvas, why professional framing adds value and how it ensures the longevity of your framed canvas art.

From Printing to Framing

When creating a print on framed canvas, precision and care are at the heart of the process. Here’s how we bring your vision to life:

1. High quality printing

We begin with state-of-the-art printing technology to transfer your photo or artwork onto premium-grade canvas. The result? Vibrant colours and sharp details that capture the essence of the original piece. We also use fade-resistant inks to ensure your print stands the test of time.

2. Stretching the canvas

Once printed, the canvas is carefully stretched over a wooden frame, also known as a stretcher bar. This step requires skill, tools and well-practiced techniques to achieve the perfect tension—ensuring the canvas lies flat with no sagging while maintaining the integrity of the artwork.

3. Frame selection

The frame plays a crucial role in complementing the artwork. We offer a wide range of options, from sleek, minimalist styles to ornate designs with deep rebates that fit the depth of the stretcher bar. Each frame is custom cut and joined to fit the stretched canvas perfectly.

Why Professional Framing Matters

Preservation of value

Original artwork and cherished photos are irreplaceable. Professional custom framing safeguards these treasures against damage, ensuring they can be enjoyed for a lifetime. By using high-quality materials such as the canvas, ink and canvas stretcher frames, we minimise the risk of fading, discoloration or warping.

Enhanced aesthetic appeal

A professionally framed canvas elevates the artwork’s visual impact. The right frame enhances the colours, textures and mood of the piece, turning it into a centrepiece for your space. Whether it’s a modern photo print or a traditional painting, the frame should harmonise with the artwork and your décor.

Custom solutions for unique pieces

No two pieces are the same and neither are our framing solutions. From oversized prints to intricate original art, our team crafts every aspect of the process to suit the piece’s unique requirements.

Increased longevity

Environmental factors like sunlight, humidity and dust can significantly degrade artwork over time. With professional printing and framing, you can rest assured that your print on framed canvas is protected against these elements, preserving its beauty and value.

Before and After: The Professional Difference

Imagine an unframed canvas print—it may look lovely, but it lacks the polish and finish needed to truly shine. Compare this to a professionally framed canvas, where the colours pop, the edges are neat and the piece is beautifully framed ready to display. The transformation is undeniable and demonstrates the value of expert craftsmanship.

Tips for Maintaining Your Framed Canvas

To keep your framed canvas looking its best, follow these simple care tips:

  • Avoid Direct Sunlight: Even with UV protection, prolonged exposure to sunlight can cause fading.
  • Dust Regularly: Use a soft, dry cloth to remove dust from the frame and canvas surface.
  • Control Humidity: Display your artwork in a stable environment to prevent moisture damage.
  • Handle with Care: When moving your framed canvas, hold it by the frame to avoid putting pressure on the canvas.
