Pet portraits for Mother's Day

2010-03-18T06:00:00.000-07:00

My name is Greg Joens and I work as an artist at CanvasOne.com

I would like to tell you about a "Really Great Art Product" that is perfect for Mother's Day. You may have heard about the great value of digital oil paintings. For a fraction of the cost of a tradition oil painting, CanvasOne can create an original painting from a favorite photo of your pet.

Our digital oil paintings are not just some filter effect that we apply to a photo, but we use a digital paint brush to re-create the image with brighter colors and better contrast to bring out the best features in your pet.

One of our customers shares her reaction to her canvas painting:

“Words can't express my gratitude over the "magic on canvas" Greg Joens (CanvasOne) produced from just a tiny photograph of our cherished dog "Mia", who passed away in July '07. Thank you, thank you!!” — Rhonda Larson, Greenville, SC

Lost Treasure

2010-02-13T05:36:00.000-08:00

Thousands of today's digital photos are never printed. Even wedding photos are left on CDs for years. Recently, it has been reported that computer CDs may lose data in as few as 2 years, depending on environmental factors such as light, heat and humidity.

One great alternative to CD storage is archival printing. An archival print on canvas can last nearly 100 years, plus you'll be able to enjoy your favorite photos displayed proudly in your home or office.

CanvasOne.com uses quality archival inks and canvas that will

preserve your most valuable photos for generations to come.

Paris Café

2009-04-24T10:24:00.000-07:00

Paris Cafe, located in the heart of downtown Greenville, has more than just great authentic French Cuisine. There’s also an impressive display of canvas artwork throughout the building, which was done by www.canvasone.com.
The lady in red, and pictures of the Eiffel Tower and the Arc de Triomphe are just a few examples of some of the canvases that welcome you as you walk into Paris Cafe. The artwork is nothing less than pleasing to look at. But the canvases aren’t just pretty pictures, they do a very good job of adding to the sophisticated environment of the cafe. The combined affect is elegant and appealing.
Paris Cafe is quaint, charming, and the perfect place for a drink or meal with your friends and family. It’s one of the few places where you can sit down, relax, and enjoy the wonderful food and artwork without feeling like you’re being rushed. To be able to have a cup of coffee while enjoying beautiful artwork leaves you with a great feeling.
Paris Cafe is a nice break to your busy day. It’s easy to realize you’re in a better mood from just being there, no matter how long you’ve stayed. When you leave Paris Cafe, and step back on Main Street, you might be a little disappointed that you’re going on with your fast paced life, but you’re certainly not disappointed you went there. So if you’re in the mood to sit down, relax, have a nice conversation, and look at some lovely artwork, Paris Cafe certainly delivers.

When you walk through the doors and into the Village Hospital, located at the intersection of Highway 14 and Westmoreland Road, you get a feeling unlike any other. The natural, healing environment of the hospital is made apparent by the artwork,design, and natural lighting of the state of the art facility. To experience a feeling of peace and serenity as you walk through the halls of a hospital, such as the Village Hospital, is very uplifting, as opposed to the cold, bleak feeling one usually gets when walking through any sort of medical building.

The elegant and modern architecture of the Village Hospital is definitely noticable; from the inside and outside. The inspiration for the building came from a dogwood tree. As you walk through the hospital, you see elements of the dogwood tree and nature everywhere. The first and second level floor pattern mimic the trunk and branches, and the third and fourth level floor pattern mimic the leaves of the dogwood tree. Why the dogwood tree? For many years, the dogwood tree has been used for medicinal purposes.

The photos, by Kevin Silvey, which have been put on canvas by Canvas One, are placed in every hallway throughout the hospital. These canvases, along with a lot of plans for the architecture of the hospital have been selected by Gaby Mitchell. These nature themed canvas photographs definitely add a positive touch to the healing environment of the hospital. The effect of the natural lighting in the hospital also adds a nice touch to Silvey's canvas photographs.

Canvas One has been serving the Upstate by putting artwork on canvas for three years. They were able to put approximately 108 of Kevin Silvey's photographs on canvas for the Village Hospital. Of course, Canvas One doesn't just put photographers or artists work on canvas. Along with retouching, they are able to do restorations, digital paintings, expansions, colorizations, collages, pop art, and photo split panels of any picture, painting, or drawing.

The artwork and the architecture along with the medical professionals at the Village Hospital ensure a wonderful experience to anyone who goes there. Whether it's visiting a loved one, or visiting the hospital for your personal medical attention, no matter if it's a short visit, or a lengthy one it will be more pleasing, relaxing, and serene than any other hospital you've been to.

Mary Chapin said quote... “I like to doodle because I have to. It keeps me from getting bored and falling asleep!”Mary Chapin Joens is an artist. She creates her masterpeices on her arm. Yes, that's right, on her ARM! Her father then snaps a digital picture of the work and colorizes it. He adds a bible verse and "voila!" our Bible Doodles are born! Kudos out to Mary Chapin and her ability to keep herself awake in class! Our Bible Doodles sell for $30 and are produced as 8x8 canvases on thin stretcher bars. Enjoy!
