What makes BIG canvas beach art so special?

They're a powerful statement piece that can completely change the look and feel of a room.
The large size of the canvas allows for intricate details and vibrant colors, creating a visually stunning focal point. Whether you choose an abstract design or a breathtaking landscape, the art will captivate anyone who enters the room.
Why should you buy canvases from independent artists?
-
Did you know, the canvases at big box stores are mass produced, with the artist sometimes receiving as little as 1% of the listed price of the canvas?
When you buy canvas wall art from independent artists, you're not just purchasing a beautiful piece of art. You're also ensuring the artist who made the artwork is receiving a larger portion of your purchase amount.

Q: How do I hang extra large canvases?
A: Hanging large-scale canvas wall art can be a bit challenging due to its size and weight.
Hanging hardware:
We recommend hanging canvas art with wire picture hangers. They are far easier to use than saw tooth hangers. When purchasing a canvas, make sure it comes with a wire hanger.
When hanging the canvas on the wall, it is wise to use sturdy hooks or nails and ensure they are properly anchored to the wall. For large canvases, multiple hooks can be used to not only distribute the weight, but also to help you level the art.
If you're unsure about how to hang your canvas, or would prefer to have assistance you can also consult a professional to hang your art.
Q: How can I care for my canvas art?
A: To keep your beautiful canvas looking its best, avoid placing it in direct sunlight or areas with high humidity. Dust the art regularly with a soft, dry cloth to prevent any buildup. If you need to clean the canvas, use a mild detergent diluted in water and gently wipe the surface. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials that could damage the artwork.
