If you are interested in a fantastic Giveaway - read on!
Recently I was contacted by Kristoffer
from the company called canvaspop
This online printing company has a "huge passion for quality art, photography
and home decor".
Kristoffer, who found my blog, offered me a free 16"X20" canvas print
and hoped I would review their product here.
My print arrived yesterday and I must say I am thrilled with it.
I wholeheartedly agree that this company is all that it states it to be on
Excellent customer service - ease in ordering - fabulous product.
Be certain to watch their video showing the process of turning your photo, or
any photo you love, into a piece of beautiful art to hang on your wall.
***************
How do you pick a special photo to turn into 'art' for your home or office?
If, like me, and most bloggers, you take a lot of photos, so you have many which you
might enjoy seeing on your walls.
Personally, some very special days remain vividly in my memory from my
overseas travels of the past several years and naturally I took a lot of
photos in many countries.
Often it's a place and its people. The smallest nudge brings back the sights,
sounds, colors and smells. Sometimes it's the smiles on the faces.
My day in Cochin, India a couple of years ago is one of those days.
I took many photos of the beautiful children and their mothers. I chose one
image for its colors and the lovely woman working diligently to support her family.
Recently I have been collecting my many images of women around the world to do
a special post. I just know there will be others I will want to have turned into these
wonderful canvas prints. . . . . . . and canvaspop will definitely be the company
I'll be using.
Perfect timing - Kristoffer worked with me to assure my art would arrive after I
returned from a trip - and not be left outside on the porch. My canvas was
carefully wrapped and shipped in a sturdy box ensuring no damage.
On opening the package I was immediately thrilled with the print. The colors are perfect,
the image is amazingly sharp having been enlarged from my original small photo.
I had the option of wrapping the print around the sides of the frame but, as I wanted
to keep as much of the beautiful cobalt blue tones in the background at the top,
decided on the white sides. The piece arrived with a hanger.
Below you see it now on the wall here in my office where I'll be enjoying it every
day when here at my desk.

That is a beautiful print Mary. The colours are so rich in it. I'd love the chance to win one too as I have lots of photos that could be done. I just keep putting it off. Thank you. Have a great day. xx Pam
ReplyDeleteWow, the colors did turn out beautifully bright! Looking forward to seeing this print hanging in your office on my next visit! Hope you both enjoyed your trip to DC -- we are going next weekend for a beer and wine festival with Patrick and Michelle. April is looking busyyy, but let's all plan a weeknight dinner sometime soon! Perhaps next week? Let me know what your schedule looks like! xx
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful print. The colors would blend in nicely in many decors. . Thanks Mary for offering your blogging friends a chance to win. hugs.
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful job they've done for you! I would be very happy to be entered in this draw. Thank you!
ReplyDeleteYour artwork is gorgeous - such rich colors. I have some photos I want to print on to canvas; just haven't gotten around to it. I'm off to explore the video on the CanvasPop site. I'd love the chance to win.
ReplyDeleteI do have just the photo I have been wanting to print. How I would love this. Your photo is just gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteYour photo/canvas is awesome! And of course I would love to do one of my own.
ReplyDeleteOh, my goodness, the canvas brings such dimension to your photo. The colors are so vivid and the textures seem touchable. It's just lovely. I have a shot of a round barn in VT that I have (for a while) said I would like to have blown up and framed, but the canvas is a much better idea! Thanks, Mary, for sharing your experience.
ReplyDeletewhat a lovely give away!! I have been looking for a good place to have photos put onto canvas....looks like I showed up at just the right time. Don't know how you chose a print to do.....you have so many gorgeous photos of your travels!
ReplyDeleteReally beautiful, you have choosen a good phot
ReplyDeleteWhat a great give away Mary. I love canvas wrapped pictures and have a few.
ReplyDeleteThat photo is wonderful. I'm sure it it a great addition to your office. I have a photo of the Gulf that my grand daughter took while on Spring Break that I would love to see on a wrapped canvas. Thanks for the opportunity to win!
ReplyDeleteYour choice for a canvas wrapped picture is excellent. The change of colors is striking and the subject is intriguing. Today, I will need to start my hunt for a photo to use, should I be the selected winner! Thank you.
ReplyDeleteMary in Oregon
Pick me, pick me! The photo you selected is positively lovely, and the colors are especially vibrant. I will go check them out. Gosh, I wonder if they help by converting your digital image to the correct printing profile. I've never had a photo canvas done. I would be hard pressed to figure out which photos I would want printed!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous choice, Mary. The colors are so vivid in the photo you chose. It's stunning! I don't know how I'd narrow it down, but I would rise to the challenge!

Stunning, Mary! You are an amazing photographer.
ReplyDeleteHappy Easter to you and Bob!
With all of your beautiful photographs it must have been a challenge to choose one. However, you made an excellent choice and it turned out so well on canvas. The colors and background textures are so lifelike.
ReplyDeleteThis is such a perfect giveaway for we bloggers who like to take photos... and lots of them :).
I missed your giveaway, but wanted to say, what a beautiful photo! Just came over here from Tammy's blog. Very nice blog.
ReplyDeleteNo dear, you didn't miss a chance to win - I'm not drawing a winner until NEXT Friday - you will be included!
DeleteThanks for stopping by and commenting.

Your photos are all so beautiful, Mary. Know it must have been very difficult to select one for the canvaspop.
ReplyDeleteI don't comment much but I quietly enjoy...hope that is okay.
Congratulations to you and Bob on your special anniversary! Something to be very proud of...50 years!
Hope your Easter was special. Your purple flower is gorgeous!
