How many times have you let life get in the way and missed your opportunity for autumn photography? I know I have.
This is just what Chad Galloway set to capture the changing leaves and the fall colors. He tells CanvasPop that he would have not captured the original picture if it had not been for the State Troopers.
You see at first he didn’t even notice this wooded area . A few towns later he ended up getting stopped by the state trooper and having his car towed because the insurance card in his car had expired. Even with valid insurance, he had no way of proving this. Chad ended up spending the night in a small town in the middle of nowhere.
The next day and hundreds of dollars later he was able to get his car back. He started heading back home and was in no mood to take pictures.
"The forest was so dense and the vegetation was so bight. I had to stop and take a few pics no matter how bad I felt. I’m kinda glad it worked out the way it did though because I probably never would have got this pic, if I hadn’t been pulled over" Galloway
Chad did not set out in search of the perfect photo that day and ending up printing fall photos on canvas. You never know when you might capture your next picture for a canvas enlargement.

“Sand and Surf… A vacation photo transformed into canvas art”
Vacations are a time to create memories and escape from the daily grind. The world is yours to explore. Enjoy the time off and take lots of pictures.
When you return to work why not surround yourself with visual representation of your escape and turn your vacation shots into pictures on canvas.
CanvasPop was able to help a customer transform her digital image into artwork for her walls.
“My husband captured this shot while on vacation in Hawaii a few years ago. This photo has been one of my favorites ever since.”
Surround yourself with your favorite photos because they can trigger positive emotions, reduce stress and improve your state of mind.
The Business Committee for the Art and the International Association for Professional Art Advisors found that upwards of 73% of employees believed that artwork in the office helps to reduce stress, increase creativity, and enhance corporate moral.
Create an escape with your vacation shots and cover your walls with photo enlargements.
As you venture off on holidays keep an eye out for interesting shots. It might just be your next art piece!
Coming soon: We’ll be featuring a new photo on canvas daily on Twitter. Follow @CanvasPop on Twitter for the latest “insider” images, ideas, and tips.
Luc Levesque founder of TravelPod holding his “logo on canvas” made up of 3000 mosaic photos.
Our friends at Travelpod (an Expedia company) needed some unique canvas photo art for their offices- so they came to CanvasPop for the solution.
TravelPod was the first site to enable its members to create online travel blogs which revolutionized the way people travel and share their adventures with the world. TravelPod.com remains, as always, a “for the travel community” service. Naturally they wanted to create some art that reflected what they are all about. TravelPod hosts thousands of pictures submitted by their community of bloggers. They took a random sampling of over 3000 images from their library and created a cool logo on canvas from them made up entirely from a mosaic of these images. From a distance it hard to tell that the “logo” is made up of nearly 3000 unique photos that act like pixels. They proudly display their logo mosaic in their lobby. Talk about a conversation piece!
Beautiful travel-themed canvas photos adorn the walls of TravelPod's office.
Next, they hand selected some original and beautiful vacation shots that look like they belong in National Geographic and we blew them up to 36″ x 54″ for their walls. Not only do the images tell a great story, they also reflect the TravelPod brand beautifully. As an added benefit these canvas prints actually help to reduce (even eliminate) echoes in their new open concept office digs.
What do your office walls say? Do you have a unique art concept you would like to put up in your office? Here’s an idea: collect pictures from your employees or fellow workers, create a cool logo on canvas, take pictures of your products- and turn them into art! Have fun with your company’s visual brand. Art makes any office space “more fun” at a relatively low cost.
Evan Taubenfeld at his recording studio (Big Evil Corp.) in Los Angeles. CanvasPop printed the logo in the background on Canvas.
Over the next few weeks we’re getting all our celeb clients and Internet friends to beta test CanvasPop. Occasionally we will feature our clients, their canvases, and their stories. First up? Evan Taubenfeld.
Evan is a 25 yr old, LA- based, songwriter/recording artist. His debut solo album comes out on Warner Bros in August (iTunes has the single now). Before that he was Avril Lavigne’s lead guitarist and music director. Although lately his album has been eating most of his time he still gets to work with Avril and other incredible artist on collaborating for their music as well.
We asked Evan about his two custom canvas prints he had printed with CanvasPop…
“ET: I’ve been a big fan of DNA 11 (www.dna11.com – CanvasPop parent company) since they first got started doing the DNA portraits a few years back. I’ve kept an eye on their new products and the (CanvasPop) canvases are really cool. We’d had some signs @ Big Evil Studios(which is where I do most of my producing from) but I personally had wanted to get a canvas print of the logo to step the aesthetic up a bit. Additionally, I just performed acoustic for Yahoo Music and they have all the artist sign canvases when they come through(most artist customize with little drawings etc) so I figured this was a good chance to raise the bar and throw my album artwork on canvas as a gift. Both turned out amazing and I’d highly recommend them.”
