The concept

Some say it's about expression, some about communication and still others say art for art's sake! As varied the reasons we chose to create it are the multitude of ways art can be experienced. We happen to think that's all just part of its charm.

From caveman's primitive drawings to today's sleek billboards, art has always played an important role throughout history. What makes our era so exciting is the ability for it to be shared so quickly, easily and affordably. Thanks to today's technology, we can all have access to artwork from across the globe. It was this idea that inspired us to create Off The Canvas Gallery.

Artists are invited to submit their work and utilize the site as a means to promote themselves as well as generate additional revenue. Because they earn money with every sale they make, we are proud to say that our customers are directly supporting the arts and assisting our artists in continuing to create.

If you would like more information about purchasing the original of any of the pieces in our collection, please let us know. We are happy to assist with any special requests.

Our Prints

All of the work in our collection is available in a variety of sizes and can be reproduced on your choice of ultra-heavy 100% cotton rag paper or semi-gloss, water resistant canvas. We use only the highest quality materials and all our reproductions offer vibrant colour and archival longevity. Since every item is made especially for you at the time of order, please allow up to 10 days for your item to be shipped.

Since many of original works do not necessarily conform to a standard size, please note that image sizes do vary. The measurements listed in the gallery represent the size of the paper/canvas. The image is printed as large as possible with a 1 inch border for paper prints and a 1/4 inch border for canvases. We normally ship our canvases rolled as this saves substantially on shipping costs. A custom framer in your area will be able to stretch it for you. However, if you prefer to receive your canvas ready to hang, please let us know and we will advise you of the additional cost.

What is Giclée? (Pronounced jhee-klay)

Originally developed in France in 1989, the term Giclée, which means "to spray ink", refers to an individually produced high-fidelity reproduction of an original artwork. Produced from a digital scan, the process involves spraying microscopic dots of archival quality ink on acid free 100% cotton paper or canvas. Giclée prints are coveted by collectors for their fidelity and quality and embraced by galleries and artists alike because they so accurately reproduce the original. In fact, the Metropolitan Museum in New York City and the Louvre in Paris and are just some of the museums whose collections include Giclée reproductions.
