Andrea Maflin, the hugely successful interior designer, TV presenter, author and event speaker, has requested CanvasRus’ canvas prints and photos onto canvas on numerous occasions over the last 5 years.

CanvasRus was introduced to Andrea, back in Feb 2006, when she was working on ITV’s Homes and Property show (in association with The Evening Standard). For this project she chose sixteen prints on canvas from the ABSTRACT, FLORAL and WILD online galleries. These pieces of canvas wall art were beautifully styled into show homes. Photography of some of the canvas art prints in situ can be seen on Andrea’s MY WORK web page. Just click on the link and scroll down to the photos with butterflies.

Andrea has also used CanvasRus’ photos onto canvas service. She wanted a professional photographer’s print transformed into a stunning 102x102cm (bespoke sized) photo canvas. This was, of course, organised with the kind permission of the photographer Daniel Sims.

As well as running a successful interior design practice Andrea’s probably best know for her appearances on the BBC’s Home Front, Real Rooms and more recently ITV1’s This Morning. She has an infectious enthusiasm for all things to do with stylish interiors. She has also written five books covering subjects such as New Ways With Paint through to her Makeover Magic. CanvasRus were very flattered to be asked to supply the We Come In Peace canvas picture, from the KIDS online gallery, for her fifth book called Children’s Rooms.

Alison Cork, the respected property journalist and TV presenter, has used canvasRus’ digitally printed canvas art on a number of occasions both on TV and in her published articles.

CanvasRus first supplied canvas wall art to the Homes & Property TV show, presented by Alison, four years ago. CanvasRus’ good reputation preceded them as they were approached about donating a thousand pounds worth of canvas prints as the show’s competition prize. The winner was bowled over by the fact that they could order a selection of their own personal photos onto canvas prints as well as a number of canvasRus’ gallery images made up into prints on canvas.

More recently Alison Cork requested a number of canvas pictures for two of her 60 Minute Makeover designs. If you’re curious to know which prints to canvas she requested click on each of these names – Autumnal 1, The Forest, Autumn Colours, Lilac Sunset, X-Ray Leaf 2, Lilac Thistle 1 and Pastel Pansy.

Alison is well known as THE authority in all things stylish and affordably priced in the interior décor market. If you’d like to know the latest and very best bargains out there, recommended tradesmen and beautiful interior design ideas then look no further than her Homes & Property newspaper features each Wednesday, Homes and Bargains website and five interior and property books that she’s written.

Maybe take photos of the kids helping with the packing? Remember too to capture each of the highlights on your trip, adventures, activities and first time experiences.

Include snaps of the landmarks you visit, locals you meet, transport you travel on and maybe even the local speciality food.

CanvasRus, the online art gallery, is proud to be supplying photo canvas prints to Britain’s Next Top Model for the third year running. BNTM, on Living TV, is back for a sixth series. Monday’s show sees the hopeful models enter their model mansion decorated with CanvasRus canvas photos.

The decorating of this gorgeous house has been co-ordinated by a highly fashionable and trend lead design team. Each photo was supplied by the show so that they could have their own London style up around the house. The four canvas pictures of Elle Macpherson herself have been created with the kind permission of the two photographers.

There are fourteen different prints on canvas that you will see around the house. The design team knew in advance that they could rely on CanvasRus for accuracy of photography reproduction to canvas photo.

If you would like to see the artwork for this new series or any further examples of our photos onto canvas please click here for our TV pages.

Your Home magazine - July issue

If you take a look inside July’s issue of Your Home magazine you will find their conservatory makeover feature has hanging, pride of place, one of CanvasRus’ photo canvas prints.

CanvasRus specialise in beautiful photos onto canvas. Personal baby photos on canvas, which can be made into stylish wall art, have to be one of the most popular purchases.

The quality of canvas printing at canvasRus is second to none. Not only is each canvas photo quality checked whilst they're being printed but they’re also stretched by hand, onto their kiln dried wooden stretchers, which is a second opportunity for quality analysis. Each print has a protective laminate finish that not only brings out the beautiful colouring but it also makes it easy to keep clean.

Your Home magazine has featured many of our canvas photos over the years. This particular makeover is a lovely example of how a room’s use and feel can easily be changed just by hanging a different photo prints on canvas. If you removed the toys from this conservatory and chose to hang a CanvasRus Floral Gallery print next to the lovely retro wall clock (instead of the baby photo canvas) it would look fresh, summery and sophisticated. This is a quick, simple and affordable way to re-decorate rather than hanging wallpaper or painting a whole room.
