Canvas Transfer

The Canvas Transfer is an effective and economical way to reproduce original artwork, prints, posters and photographs. The process, which is done by hand from start to finish, simulates the rich look of an oil painting in appearance and texture and requires no glass for protection. The technique begins with taking a poster, print or laser copy of a photo and laminating it with an anti-glare, UV protective finish. It is then placed in a bath solution where afterwards the image on the print is hand peeled from the paper and transferred onto an 8 oz., acrylic-primed cotton canvas. After the transfer is complete, a wood stretcher bar is custom –made to fit the transfer, then it is stretched and secured onto the bar. Finally, a special tape is applied to finish the edge and the piece is ready to hang. Canvas Transfers may be hung with or without a frame.
