Reviews:

David was absolutely amazing from start to finish. All I had to give him was a picture of an old photograph and he turned it into something so beautiful and even touched up the photo I sent him in the process. He was very attentive of what I wanted from the project and provided updates throughout so that I could suggest changes (not that he needed my input!) I did ask for a bit more colour in the final piece and he very graciously took the time to do so. I honestly don't believe it could have been done any better and the artwork now hangs very proudly in our living room. Thank you David

Ciara's work is outstanding! I commissioned Ciara for a painting of my brother and his fiancée for their engagement present and we were thrilled with the result. Ciara was an absolute pleasure to communicate with and she went above and beyond her remit! Thank you so much, Ciara! I highly recommend Ciara and will be a repeat client myself. Sue, Dublin

Reviews:

I had a vision of an anniversary gift for my boyfriend - I wanted a painting of the Windy Gap in Co. Mayo where we had our first kiss, and I couldn't have chosen a better artist to carry out this vision than Aliona. She treated this project with such love and care, putting all of my emotions and feelings into this painting and it turned out EXACTLY how I pictured it! I reached out to her with only a couple weeks until my anniversary and she did everything she could to have it to me as close to the date as possible. She gave me tips to maintain care of the painting and even offered to come and touch up varnish if need be. I would recommend her a thousand times if I could!! Thank you so much Aliona!

Reviews:

I commissioned Candis to create her portrait of my wife and me as, as a birthday present for my wife. Candis kindly agreed to let us sit for the portrait in person. We found her to be so friendly and welcoming and it was a unique experience of art being created as we all talked in an open and relaxed way. We are very happy with the portait Candis created which captures our character as well as Candis' impression of us, just as good art should. We found the whole process of dealing with Candis on our commission to be a pleasure.

Canvas art styles

Artists and their styles have continuously changed throughout history. Classic painting turned to impressionist paintings and industrial art had its peak before even more styles came into the picture.

A game changer for the art community was between the 1930's to 1960's. Mid century modern art was a time of social and cultural change. Artists began to experiment with new forms and break away from class painting and industrial art. This art style was characterised by its simple line art, black and white art, geometric shapes and particularly bold colours.

Creating art is a lot more accessible now which is why there is so much indie art. Independent artists, sketch artists and doodle artists often work outside of the mainstream art world and may have a unique or unconventional approach to their art and sketches.

Canvas painting medium

Canvas paintings can be created using a variety of mediums, each with their own unique characteristics and techniques. The most popular mediums are oil paint and acrylic paint. Oil painting is known for its rich, vibrant colors and the ability to create a wide range of textures and effects. Acrylic paint can create a wide range of effects and can be thinned or thickened to create different textures. Acrylic paintings can also be varnished sooner than oil paintings.

Other medium options include watercolour art, pastel painting and gouache painting. All of which have differing application processes and drying time.

Portlaoise wall paintings can be created for a variety of settings, such as homes, offices, or commercial spaces. They can also be created as gifts for special occasions, such as birthdays, weddings, or anniversaries.

Ultimately, where you hang a canvas wall art depends on the size and style of the painting, as well as the room and the purpose of the space. For example, living room wall art should compliment your furniture or act as a statement piece.

When hanging framed art, it's important to consider the lighting in the room and to make sure the framed painting is at eye level to ensure the best viewing experience. It's also important to make sure the painting is securely hung and won't fall.
