Stretched canvas

Each custom stretched canvas begins with a 12-colour Giclée print, produced from a choice of substrates. We then make a custom wooden frame from European knotless pine – in any size needed up to a maximum of 3 metres – and stretch the rolled canvas print over it. The canvas is then hand finished by our experienced framing team, who ensure each corner fold is perfectly smooth and tight. Each canvas frame is milled with a curved profile; minimising contact with the face of the canvas; preventing unsightly impression marks and surface cracking. We use finger jointed canvas frames to create corner tension which helps to resist warping. For larger sizes, we add wooden ‘wedges’ to each corner; ensuring the canvas surface remains taut and allowing for easy re-stretching in future years.
