Turn Your Photo Into a Canvas Print
A canvas print is your image printed on archival canvas and wrapped around a solid wood stretcher bar frame. Photographers order canvas to show portraits, weddings, and landscapes at room scale. Families use canvas for everyday photos, baby and pet portraits, and travel shots. Artists order canvas to reproduce their own paintings, digital work, or scanned originals as gallery-ready pieces.
Upload a photo, a digital painting, or a scan of original artwork. The canvas designer previews how the print will look at the size you pick, so you can see crop, color, and proportion before ordering. For a sharp result, the image should hold about 150 PPI at the print size. A 24 by 36 inch canvas, for example, prints best from a file around 3,600 by 5,400 pixels.
Add a Floater Frame to Your Canvas
A floater frame sits around the outside of a stretched canvas with a small reveal between the canvas edge and the inner frame wall. The result is a clean, modern finish that frames the work without covering any of the painted or printed surface. Floater frames are the standard upgrade on a finished canvas piece, and the option most photographers and artists choose for delivery to clients and galleries.
Floater frame finishes available with every canvas print: black, white, natural wood, walnut, and gold. The same finish options pair with both standard 0.75 inch and deeper 1.5 inch canvas stretcher bars.
Explore the dedicated floater frames for canvas page for finish samples and profile details, then add a floater frame to your canvas print in the designer above.
Canvas Print Sizes
Canvas prints at CustomPictureFrames.com are made to your exact size. There are no fixed stock sizes you have to fit your image into. Common sizes most customers order include 16 by 20, 20 by 30, 24 by 36, and 30 by 40 inches, but you can enter any dimensions that match your image and your wall.
Large and oversized canvas prints are a regular order for us, and the largest sizes ship with reinforced stretcher bars to prevent flex over time. If you have a wall measurement first and an image second, enter the wall dimensions and the designer will show you the price and preview at that exact size.
How Your Canvas Print Is Made
Every canvas print is produced on archival poly-cotton canvas using archival pigment printers. Pigment inks render smoother gradients, more accurate skin tones, and deeper shadow detail than the dye-based systems used by consumer photo services, and pigment prints are rated for long-lasting fade resistance under normal indoor display.
After printing, each canvas is hand-stretched over a solid wood stretcher bar frame, corners are folded and secured on the back, and hanging hardware is installed. You choose between standard 0.75 inch and deeper 1.5 inch stretcher bars in the designer. The finish you choose at order time, gallery-wrap or floater frame, is built in before the piece ships.
Canvas Print or Framed Paper Print?
Canvas is the right choice when you want a textured, painterly surface and a finish that hangs without glazing. It suits photography sized for room-scale display, painted reproductions, and casual or modern decor.
Framed paper prints are the right choice when you want a piece behind glazing. Paper handles fine detail, type, and signature work better than canvas, and a mat and frame add a more formal presentation. Non-glare acrylic is available on framed paper orders to cut reflection. See our print and frame service or our giclée printing page for paper-print options.
Frequently Asked Questions
What resolution do I need for a canvas print?
We recommend an image that holds about 150 PPI at your final print size. A 24 by 36 inch canvas, for example, prints sharpest from a file around 3,600 by 5,400 pixels. The canvas designer flags files that may look soft at the size you choose before you finalize the order.
Can I add a frame to a canvas print?
Yes. Canvas prints can ship gallery-wrapped only, or finished in a floater frame that leaves a clean reveal around the edges. Floater frames come in black, white, natural wood, walnut, and gold. You choose framed or unframed inside the canvas designer.
What is the largest canvas print you can order?
Custom canvas prints are made to your exact size with no fixed stock-size limits. Common sizes run from 16 by 20 up through 30 by 40 inches, and larger pieces are available on a custom basis. Enter your dimensions in the canvas designer to see pricing for your size.
Are canvas prints ready to hang?
Yes. Every canvas print ships hand-stretched on a solid wood stretcher bar frame with hanging hardware installed on the back. Gallery-wrapped prints can be hung straight from the box, and floater-framed canvases ship with the floater frame already fitted around the canvas.
How long do canvas prints take to ship?
Standard canvas print orders ship in 3-5 business days. Large or custom-size pieces follow the same window in most cases. Tracking information goes out by email when the order ships.
Can I make a canvas print from a phone photo?
Yes. Modern phone cameras produce files large enough for canvas prints at common sizes. For best results, use the original photo from your camera roll rather than a copy that has been shared through messaging or social apps, since those are usually compressed.
