Photo on Canvas of Your Pet
We love our four-legged children and do all sorts of things for them - play with them, buy them toys, take them for walks.
And we typically take lots and lots of photos of them.
Where do those photos go? Maybe in a photo album, maybe a box.
The album is nice but why not create a canvas portrait of your best friend, instead? By printing his or her photo on canvas, you honor your beloved dog or cat and have canvas art to grace the walls of your home.
It's a two-for! A number of people who have competition dogs and cats already do portraits - on traditional photo paper.
The competitions are best of breed types as well as hunting competitions for hunting dogs.
These are special events and certainly the dog or cat is at it's best - groomed, physically conditioned - the perfect time to capture all that is.
So why not upgrade these great portraits to canvas? But, hey, not all dogs and cats are show competitors.
What about the dog sitting at the living room window peeking out around the curtain looking for you to get home? Having a bath? Leaping with wild abandon into the river? Sailing through the air to catch a frisby? Asleep and snuggled with your son or daughter...
or the cat? Your cat sleeping in his or her favorite spot that is precarious or humorous...
or standing guard over food he hasn't a prayer of getting but is vigilant, nonetheless? What about the great shots of your pet wearing a Christmas hat or bunny ears...
or one not at all particularly unique - just your furry best friend being your furry best friend? An idea to consider is doing a collage of all your pets through the years.
If it is a collage, the individual photos don't have to be "perfect" as they will be smallish on the canvas.
You could do your collage in "bulletin board" style...
one over-lapping another or just evenly space the photos.
You can put the names of the pets under each photo, as well.
If you are going to use one photo for your pet portrait, as with any other photo you would choose to create your canvas print, be sure the subject of the image has plenty of peripheral background for wrapping.
The best thing to do is choose photos where the subjects of the photos are in the center and surrounded sufficiently by background, rather than photos where the dog's or cat's nose or ears are right at the edges.
And while we are talking about tight shots, it is always best to NOT crop your images before you upload.
Again, this limits the company's ability to do their thing.
If you want a photo cropped a certain way, advise in the Comments section that you have a cropped version you'd like to send to them to use as a guide and ask them to contact you.
Your canvas printer will have suggestions for you, as well, and will guide you through the process if you do not know exactly what you want.
Having your special four-legged family members on canvas prints from photos hanging on the walls of your home will bring smiles for years to come.
These furry best friends have warmed your hearts, let their visage on canvas warm your home.
