Turn Your Canvas Photo Prints into Abstract Art

Whether you’ve got a limited budget or just want to keep things personal in the space you’re designing, when it comes to creating canvas photo prints, it helps to keep things simple!

Maybe you want to use your personal photos in your spaces but you also want abstract art pieces to suit your overall aesthetic? In that case, why not do both? We’re here to tell you that you can turn any of your photos into abstract canvas photo prints!

Turn Your Canvas Photo Prints into Abstract Art

Consider the works of artist Drew Echberg – his work at first appears to be random, diffuse, completely detached from reality. Only when you know the truth of his inspiration do you really see what he’s depicted.

But for those of us that don’t have an artistic bone in our bodies, it’s not that simple. The solution? Here are a few strategies you can use to turn your real-world, crystal clear photos into abstract pieces of modern art that will have your guests buzzing and arguing about what it all means.

From Canvas Photo Prints to Abstract Art Using the Crop Tool

The crop tool in your image manipulation software of choice is drastically underrated. It’s a powerful transformative tool, not just a way to get rid of a photobomb or make an image fit a certain shape or scale.

Look at your photo of choice, and find a detail. Something that in and of itself represents the subject of the photo – or the spirit of the photo. It could be something a person is holding, or a small part of the landscape. Now, zoom in – zoom until the photo begins to lose clarity, until each pixel starts to become apparent. Crop so the blurred, abstracted portion of the photo fills the frame, and apply a slight blur effect to smooth out the pixels.

And there you have it: A piece of abstract art that will confound guests while only you will know what the subject actually is!

Textify It

Another way to take your too-obvious canvas photo prints and transform it into abstract art worthy of a gallery is to textify it.

Textify is a nifty tool that will take your photos and turn them into mosaics using letters (or other settings), instantly rendering them into diffuse clouds of colour and text. Play around with the settings a little and you can easily reinvent any photo, transforming it into a play of light and text that will make it mysterious for anyone while bumping up the design power of the piece for your walls.

Design is all about transformation. We normally think of that transformation in terms of the room itself – but it also applies to the materials and objects we use to achieve our effects.

Once you have your designs decided on, now you have to turn them into canvas photo prints. To do so, choose your photo, abstract it using a technique mentioned here, and then click here to send it our way.

Simply select your size, material (canvas, acrylic, or metal print) and place your order using our order template. We’ll handle the rest. Alternatively, if you’re still undecided about a design, we have (quite literally) million to choose from.
