I've been busy this past week putting new items up on Zazzle. I'm currently at 72 designs on around 900 products. Alas, I'm still a small fish in a big, big sea. But I want to make sure everything is up to par, and one of my favorite things that I like to be careful about is what I put on canvas. I've ordered a number of my photographs on canvas for art shows and the results I get from Zazzle are always perfect. Good, quality craftsmanship on ready to hang pieces. Even better? Right now, through Thursday, January 12 they are having 60% off on canvas prints. In case you don't know, that is one HUGE savings.
At the moment, this old radio is one of my favorite pieces. I shot the photo aiming for a pinhole effect, there's vignetting on the edges, an effect I'm fond of. There are some spiderwebs, bird poop (gross, right?), and the thing is dirty as all hell. I don't even know if it works. But, it is a cool looking, old yellow radio and it prints beautifully.
I just ordered this one the beginning of the year, it's going in art show I'm doing in April. Maybe you've heard of it? Arts Walk in Olympia, Washington? Should be fun. At any rate, I shot this photo with a Raynox 250 lens. It's a super up close, not exactly true macro photo, and the depth of field is shallow, but what a wonderful photo. The red is so vibrant and the green stem is detailed with little pricklers (is that even a word??) - it's absolutely gorgeous.
My last choice for this blog is this canvas piece, United States Flag. While I haven't ordered this on canvas, I have ordered it on postcards and again, beautiful work from Zazzle. This is a field flag at a VA hospital in Michigan. The sky was really whited out the day I took this, so I just let it be, but I added the grunge to it to give it some texture and it turned out awesome. If you're a patriotic person, or a fan of Americana in general, this would be a nice canvas piece to display in your home.
Again, 60% off canvas prints, at Zazzle, sale good through Thursday, 1/12.
And you'll need this code: 60CANVASDEAL

From one photographer to another... good luck with your business, and your Zazzle store! :-) LOVE your old radio photo. Vintage is good. Vintage in photography is even better.
