Canvas Print

As many companies have been forced to make significant cutbacks to their employee programs, an interesting idea to promote morale is to implement programs designed to show gratitude to employees in lieu of financial compensation. Posting a photo on canvas in a heavy traffic area in an office implies to visitors that the individuals who make up the company are worthy of recognition.

Today's economy has admittedly crippled the morale of companies who have had to make significant cutbacks to maintain their existence. Employees who have felt the financial pinch still like to know that their talents are appreciated, even if they aren't compensated financially due to the cutbacks.

Some companies have decided to rededicate attention to their employees; the true workforce of their company. In a time when petty cash is low and company events are rare, a wise organization can still boost morale with a show of recognition to their teams using photo to canvas technology.

Snapping a digital image of each department or team and then transferring the photos to canvas is a technique that has become popular in the last few years. Special service providers can now convert an existing image (or digital image) to a fascinating print that resembles original artwork. Advanced technologies have allowed for the original image to be enhanced to remove or "phase in" objects or people that were not included in the original. The most difficult task for the customer is deciding which picture to use.

Once that decision has been made, a quick online search for the phrase "photo printing on canvas" or "canvas prints" will return a variety of firms that specialize in this industry. Canvases come in a variety of sizes (standard sizes range from 8x10 inches up to 40x60 inches; depending on the size of your cube) and can be customized if a larger print is desired. Professional finishing allows the canvases to be either framed in a traditional portrait arrangement or wrapped around a wooden from for a more modern contemporary appeal; therefore any space can be enhanced by their presence.

Through technology the entire order and payment process (from photo upload to payment with a credit card) can occur online with shipping options available to suit all orders. Most orders can be delivered in a few as 3-4 business days.

Make a memorable impact on your employees by recognizing them with their photo on canvas and displaying it in a high traffic area; it may be the best money that you will ever spend.

How do I properly showcase canvas and print work in a portfolio?

I use sharpies and canvas medium to create art. I would like to showcase my work by taking photos of it and creating a portfolio to take and show friends and eventually potential buyers my work. I would like this to be as professional as possible.

How do I format the portfolio to look up to standards? Also, should I include little descriptions of the pieces such as dimensions and medium since the portfolio will only showcase photos of the work -not the actual work.

I cannot find information online on this. Thanks for ANY advice

first you need a portfolio, those scrap booking books work well, I bought one in black, then they have the plastic inserts that you can slide your pages into

i created my portfolio on power point, others have used photo shop
you can upload your photos and yes, have a short description (materials etc) and the dimensions and year
its also nice to have a table of contents and a statement about your artistic process, resume at the end

print it on nice heavy paper, you also may need to cut the white edges off because black is the best background and remount on a black sheet of paper, or you can talk to people at office max who do professional printing

good luck!
