Professional Gallery-Wrapped Construction
Each image is printed on textured canvas and carefully stretched around a durable wooden frame. The artwork continues around the outer edges, creating a seamless gallery-wrapped appearance that does not require a separate decorative frame.
The approximately 1.5" frame depth adds dimension to the finished piece and helps it stand out from the wall. A pre-attached wire hanger and rubber bumpers are included for convenient display.
Designed for Square Images and Artwork
Square canvas prints are ideal for designs with equal width and height. For the best composition, upload artwork with a 1:1 aspect ratio.
Rectangular images may require cropping to fit the selected square size. During artwork preparation, keep faces, text, logos, borders, and other important details away from the edges so they remain visible after cropping and wrapping.

Image Resolution and Color
For the best printing results:
-
Use a high-resolution image at the final selected size.
-
A resolution of 150–300 DPI at full size is recommended.
-
Avoid screenshots, social-media downloads, and heavily compressed images.
-
Save photographic artwork in a high-quality format.
-
Use CMYK color mode when possible for more predictable printed color.
-
Review brightness, contrast, sharpness, and skin tones before submission.
Images displayed on illuminated screens may appear brighter than the final printed canvas. Exact color matching cannot be guaranteed across different screens, printers, and materials.
Gallery-Wrap Artwork Guidelines
Gallery wrapping requires part of the image to extend around the 1.5" sides of the wooden frame. Your file must include sufficient image area beyond the visible front panel.
For best results:
-
Keep faces, text, logos, signatures, and focal points inside the front safe area.
-
Do not place essential elements close to the outer edges.
-
Allow additional image area for the wrapped sides.
-
Avoid thin borders, as small alignment variations may become noticeable.
-
Use a square 1:1 composition to minimize unexpected cropping.
-
Check that the image remains visually balanced on the front and wrapped edges.
A standard 0.125" print bleed alone may not provide enough image area for the gallery-wrapped sides. Follow the template for your selected canvas size or provide additional background area around the design.

Possible print-quality concerns
