Canvas Prints Rock!

Recently I had the opportunity to work on 2 projects that combine my love for photography and for art. I was at a dinner party with some friends to celebrate their newly renovated apartment. As I was walking through their home, admiring all of the amazing art work hanging on their newly painted white walls, they mentioned they were trying to find a Granny Smith apple print to add some color to their kitchen.

I was inspired and decided to give it a try. We had just had an amazing snow storm and I thought the snow would make a beautiful backdrop to highlight the green color of the apple.

The next day I strapped on my snow boots, grabbed my gloves and my camera, and walked outside with excitement. On my way to Central Park I stopped by my local grocery store and picked the greenest Granny Smith apple I could find.

It was so much fun! The project was a success and I'm proud to say that two Granny Smith apples now grace the wall in a kitchen in a beautiful apartment on the Upper West Side of NYC.
The 2 photographs they chose:
Rather than traditional photo prints, we went a more interesting route and printed the photos on canvas. It was my first time working with Simply Canvas and boy, they were a wonderful surprise! The quality of the prints was amazing.

Fast forward to a few weeks ago and the same couple needed an art piece to complete a wall collage. I was so excited to start another project with them. This time their theme was "everything is connected." It took a bit of time to figure out what photograph would capture the concept for them, but a trip to the Bronx provided exactly what I was looking for. There was a beautiful view of the GW Bridge and thankfully I had my camera with me so I was able to take advantage of the opportunity.

One of the coolest options at Simply Canvas is the ability to add text to the side of the canvas. In this project, we embraced the theme and printed the words "everything is connected" on the left hand side of the canvas. The result:


Thank you Hilary and David. I had an amazing time working on these projects with you.

Three cheers for canvas!
