A client brought this canvas print in to ask if I knew what may have caused the discoloration at the bottom of the photo. Based on the area near the frame where the discoloration did not occur I thought maybe it was UV damage (with the untouched section in the shadow of the frame) but couldn't see why would it stop part-way up. Any other ideas, or has anyone seen something similar before? Thanks!

Re: Cause of discoloration
I'm not an expert, but it does look like sun damage. The odd pattern could be a result of where it was hanging - maybe sunlight was getting in and around other objects? We have a rug that has uneven fading due to the way the afternoon sun comes in through side lights and almost around a corner (partially blocked by what is outside the window). It could also be unstable ink or maybe the canvas wasn't primed properly? Good luck! -

Re: Cause of discoloration
Hi
I also had a photo on canvas dating from the early 1990s that had a similar odd stain....not in the corner but over part of the subjects face and in the background. (It was a yellow stain on a lighter purplish background and on part of the skin colour) I found when it came to restoration I had to treat the area differently from the rest of the image when it came to colour correction and that photographing it produced the best results to deal withe the texture issues created by the canvas.Comment

As the topic says that "see canvas through picture"-effect was giving me a hard time lately.
Applying a canvas texture isn't a big deal of course.
Making it visible only on certain parts of the picture isn't difficult either.

Hi everyone. This is a basic question. Is it possible to stretch/mount inkjet printed canvas, and if so, does anyone know how it's done? i've been doing a lot of digital art but have no real experience in actual painting (by hand) on canvas, and so I'm not sure how the stretching part is done, or...05-06-2004, 12:59 AM

Hello,
I'm looking at using PremierArt's Water Resistant Canvas (for Epson printer using an R2400) and I'm wondering anyone can help me? Does the canvas *have* to be stretched post-printing, or can it just be framed as a flat print behind glass? I would love to use this paper (love the texture...12-02-2007, 06:56 AM -
OK, I admit I'm exhausted and may not be thinking clearly. But I can't figure out how to restore this photo. The photo has been through a fire and has smoke damage on the bottom especially. That's not the problem though - I'm simply going to crop that off.
The problem is the texture...05-14-2004, 10:55 PM -
