canvas photo art in living areas
I am so tempted to find some of our vacation photos and have them printed on larger size canvas to display in our family room and hallway. I would mostly do scenic photos along with a few of the kids. I am likely going to purchase through costco photo. Do you guys like canvas photos as living area art?? I am hesitant thinking it could cheapen the look of our room, but at the same time think I may absolutely love it. Opinions?
Re: canvas photo art in living areas
I did it with our family pics from when Rubes was born.
I think they look good. I'm pretty casual but they don't look cheap to me.
My photographer has them in her LR with her kids on a giant in color photowall and it's pretty sweet.
I did a really big one of DH and DS. Someone ran it through a Photoshop filter for me so it looks like a watercolor. It's hard to see from the pic, but it looks really nice in person. I actually think the bigger the better, it looks more like "real art." I have an 8 x 10 in my office of the same picture (it was free with shipping), and it looks a little silly.
Ohhh...I love this. And thanks for the photoshop idea. I will go large as our walls are huge and empty.
