Word art canvas prints are a great way to have your favourite poem, lyrics or simply a special set of words displayed on to canvas prints.
Creating word art is a highly personal process. It is a way of translating your feelings, ideas and creativity into a visual medium. For poets, this means putting down their thoughts and ideas in in to words. Do you have a favourite set of words that you would like to have displayed as a visual piece of word art. Why not consider transferring your favourite words on to a canvas print?
The process of painting text on canvas is not new. The ancient Celts wrote house blessings on to cloth and used them to decorate their homes and the Egyptians too, transcribed blessings on to pots and sculpture. Painting poems or text on canvas is a great way to create decorative pieces so that many people can enjoy the combination of text and art. Art, in the form of drawing and painting, has played a huge role in our lives and creating gorgeous impressions of poems onto canvas is a great way to showcase your talent to a wide audience.
Translating Your Poems On to Canvas
It’s an easy process if you want to put your text on canvas. If you have art experience, you may already have an idea of what to do. It’s not a problem if you don’t have any experience. Start by choosing the poem you want to change into artwork. Then, it’s time to actually design the content and its placement on a canvas. Take a few minutes to browse online. Go to Google Images and browse through the different text-on-canvas images that you can see.
You can then download the image and resize it to create a template for your own artwork. Practice by tracing your poem on to transparent paper with a pencil. Once you are comfortable with the process, you can then slowly trace the design on to canvas. You don’t have to buy and stretch the canvas yourself as readymade canvases are available from any art store like ours at Canvasdesign. A word of caution: start with a small canvas before you move on to larger images. You can use permanent marker pens, wax pencils, or a brush to create the text.
Professional Artwork
Some of you may be great poets but painting may not be your forte. In that case, you can hire a company or freelance artist to create the artwork for you. All you have to do is provide the words, and explain what you are looking for. With a little guidance, we will create several designs and patterns for you to choose from.
