Artwork: Should I Add a Frame?

TO FRAME OR NOT TO FRAME

Prints

People often wonder whether they should frame their artwork. If you order a print, framing it will help you appreciate it fully. You can find frames both online and in local stores. The type of frame you choose is entirely up to you; your presentation should reflect your personality. When framing prints, consider adding a mat to enhance the overall look and increase its size.

Canvases

What about canvas wall art? It’s perfectly fine to hang a canvas directly on the wall. Our canvases are available in both .75-inch and 1.5-inch thicknesses. Either size is suitable for most applications, but when purchasing a large canvas, we strongly recommend opting for the 1.5-inch thickness.

Did you know that you can frame a canvas? While some people prefer the unframed look for a more modern aesthetic, others opt to add a frame for a different style. Canvas frames, particularly float frames, are designed to create the illusion that the canvas is floating within the frame. You can always request a mockup from us if you are uncertain.
