Printing digital art onto canvas

[Fj Wepener]

Hi guys

I'm busy painting a landscape in ye olde ps/painter, trying to see how much I can make it look like a traditional oil on canvas. This is as a present for my grandfather, so I'd like to print it onto canvas and frame it.

Anybody done this before? Is there a way to treat the canvas to give it even more of a "traditional texture"?

I'm doing it at 150 dpi so it still comes out ok and doesn't make my brushstrokes lag.

Any tips?

Try the Photoshop or Painter subforums if you don't get a nibble here. Sorry, I have no experience with this.

I've never done it personally, but a photographer friend said their prices are fair.

Google giclee print press for more.

An on-line gallery is selling some of my illustrations as (100 cm x 75 cm)canvas prints and I have to deliver these files at 250 dpi. It is printed by one of the better printers in Holland so I guess they know what they're asking. But I would ask the printer you end up working with to define a resolution. And have them scale it up and sharpen it for you if you can't work at their sizes..

Hope that helps
