Can you reproduce the layers common in oil paintings - I am looking for Van Gogh reproductions.
I was wondering what shipping company you used? I have had bad experiences shipping art in the past and am now always extra careful.
I am looking for a very large 120 inch plus canvas print and need to know if others have bought that size and did it look good. I know some printers use different machines for the smaller prints and so it is hard to tell if they can really pull off a larger size.
PS if like me you have a 'linkifier' browser extension which turns all URLs into hotlinks, the ones above won't work. Sorry about that, I just found out. It's to do with the punctuation, and we aren't allowed to edit forum posts so I can't correct the error. You need to cut and paste into your browser bar if you want to check them out for yourself.

Hi Vicki,

Thank you for your question! Gallery wrap is a method of stretching an artist's canvas so that the canvas wraps around the sides of the stretcher bar or strainer bars and is secured to the back of the wooden frame.

That also means that since it is wrapped on a wooden frame it is ready to hang. When you order from our site, we include the hanging kit as well.

If there is anything else you need please let me know at support@icanvas.com

Thanks again!
