One of the most popular forms of art that our professional framing business deals with is canvas art. Canvas art is popular for many reasons. The texture of the canvas adds depth and visual interest to the artwork, creating a tactile surface. The flexibility of canvas allows for larger-scale works to create a bold statement in a room. The porous nature of canvas absorbs and reflects light differently than other surfaces, adding richness to the artwork. Canvas is durable and long-lasting. It can also provide a more timeless feel when framed in a traditional frame or a more contemporary feel when framed in a floater frame or gallery-wrapped. The feeling you are trying to convey can help you decide whether or not to frame your canvas art.
