I have been looking for new and creative ways to display my work. My budget and storage space does not allow for printing everything at will and without a storefront to display work or a gallery partnership to hang pieces it's difficult to properly display a final product. Viewing a digital portfolio provides a convenient platform for browsing, but it does not help convey what a final framed print or canvas might actually look like.
Once pieces are hung and become part of a space their presence can completely alter the mood and atmosphere of a room. Size can have a significant influence as well, transforming a piece from "that small photo I liked and put on my wall" to something that completely envelopes a viewer, drawing interest and intrigue from anyone in it's presence.
I had seen digitally superimposed displays put together by other photographers before and decided to adopt this technique for myself to help display artwork in a living space. Below are a few of my favorites, showing both framed and canvas statement pieces as part of various home decor.
To see all samples, view the Print & Canvas Samples Album on the Cate Brown Photo Facebook Page. Which one is your favorite?
