Gallery Wrapped Canvas vs. Framed Paper Prints: Choosing the Best Fit for Your Space

Selecting the appropriate medium for exhibiting your artwork is crucial since it may significantly alter how viewers view and value your creations. We're looking at two common ways to display your abstract wall art in this blog post: gallery-wrapped Canvas and Framed Paper prints.

We'll help you choose the one that works best for your artwork by breaking down the distinctions between the two.

Now let's get going!

What is Gallery Wrapped Canvas? 

Canvas wall art adds depth and character to your artwork due to its unique textured appearance. Your artwork is printed on premium canvas material for bespoke canvas prints, which are subsequently stretched and fastened to a wooden frame.

The outcome? A gallery-wrapped canvas that adds a polished and professional touch to your artwork.

The wonderful thing about canvas wall art is that it brings out the finer elements in your artwork, giving it more depth and substance. Canvas prints are ideal if you usually use detailed features or strong brushstrokes in your designs.

What's the best thing, then? You have choices! For a sleek, contemporary appearance, hang them straight from the wall; alternatively, use a floating canvas frame to bring some sophistication and elegance into the picture.

With the vast collection of Julia’s artwork, you can create powerful presentations with canvas wall art. Also, Julia's handcrafted reproductions come in a style that is 2 inches deep, perfect for creating large canvas wall art that makes a statement. 

What are Framed Paper Prints?

Let's now discuss framed paper prints. This product gives your artwork a different aesthetic than canvas prints, which are more current and three-dimensional. Instead, imagine something more traditional and elegant.

Additionally, the fabrication method differs greatly from that of gallery-wrapped canvas wall art. For that immediate wow effect, your ideas are first printed on fine art paper of the highest caliber. They are then framed and coated with acrylic glazing for protection.

The variety of customization choices offered by framed paper prints is one of the benefits of using them to display your artwork. For instance, you can pick the kind of glaze you want as well as the colors and materials of the frames, such as metal and wooden frames.

Speaking of glazes, these protective coatings help keep your artwork safe from UV light, moisture, and dust, preserving its rich colors and quality for years to come. We at Julia’s Art Collection are so sure of the quality of our prints that we provide a color guarantee that lasts more than a century. This makes them a fantastic option for preserving abstract art prints in your home. 

How to Choose the Perfect Art for Your Wall Art

• Display Method: Choose canvas for a durable, frameless display; paper prints need framing under acrylic glazing.
• Frame Preference: Opt for canvas for a modern, frameless look; select paper prints if you prefer a traditional framed aesthetic.
• Creative Style: Canvas enhances painterly and textured art; framed prints offer a sophisticated, timeless touch.
• Space and Surroundings: Canvas suits various settings, while framed prints are ideal for high-traffic or sunlit areas.
• Adding Space Around Art: Use a mat with framed paper prints to create "air" or "white space" around your artwork.
• Personal Preference: Let your taste guide you—experiment to find the style that best fits your space and vision.

In a Nutshell

In a nutshell, personalized canvas prints are striking and versatile in various sizes, enhancing the texture and intricacies of your artwork. On the flip side, framed paper prints can be tailored to any style with an extensive selection of frame colors, materials, and glazes. They also preserve the originality and protection of your artwork.

Consider what best suits your artistic concept and the space where you plan to exhibit your artwork before making your choice. Always keep in mind that the key is to explore and determine what works best for you.

The ultimate goal is to present your artwork in a way that best represents your creativity and presents it, regardless of whether you choose our framed prints or custom canvas prints. Both options can turn your artwork into visually stunning masterpieces that will leave an enduring impression.
