This style takes a photo and gives it the comic look that is very popular.

Canvas printing is quickly becoming an in demand service for those that want to show off their quality pictures in a way that is affordable, highly customizable and overall more impressive, compared to looking at images in a traditional photo album. There are a variety of companies, especially on the Internet, that specialize in offering the cheapest canvas prints that can accommodate even those on a tight budget.

So what makes canvas prints so special? Customers that use this method will find that it is much easier to customize their images when placing their order. Because the majority of people use digital cameras to take their pictures, having the digital files allows the online canvas printing companies to change full color images to black and white, apply a special effect (for example, making the photo appear like a painting with brush strokes) or even create a modern art print of your favorite landscape, celebrity or painting.

Another benefit to ordering canvas prints is the fact that the material of the canvas is much more durable, compared to standard photo paper used in printers. Unlike regular photos that can become yellowed with age, photos on canvas are meant to last for years. Many canvases stay well preserved for decades or even longer, which means that people can pass down their favorite pictures from generation to generation without worrying about the quality of the image becoming deteriorated.

Price point is another advantage for customers. The cheapest canvas prints typically cost less than $100 and given the quality and durability of the product, this is well worth the money.

Alcoholic and self-destructive, Pollock led a turbulent life, but despite his problems, he enjoyed a remarkably successful career. Around 1941 he met his future wife, the artist Lee Krasner, who introduced him to other young painters such as Robert Motherwell and Sebastian Matta. They, like Pollock, were strongly influenced by the Surrealists who had come to America to escape World War II. Pollock also met Peggy Guggenheim, an enthusiastic patron of artists, who commissioned him to paint a monumental work for her New York home. Finally, he attracted the attention of the art critic Clement Greenberg, whose favorable articles made Pollock famous.

In the large mural for Peggy Guggenheim, Pollock broke free of the influence of Picasso and Miro, and he soon began to develop a style that emphasized strong strokes or “gestures” in paint. This style would later be called “action painting,” a term given it by the critic Harold Rosenberg in a 1952 essay. In 1947 Pollock started to drip and pour streams of paint onto canvases placed on the floor, shaking the pigment from a stick or simply letting it run from pierced paint cans. The resulting works, the combined product of chance and intention, have an epic sweep that is altogether unique. Pollock’s novel technique posed the problem or artistic freedom versus control in a very acute way, and it inaugurated a new conception of the act of painting.

In 1951 Pollock reverted to representation, limiting his palette to black and white in works that look like giant drawings. His development along these lines was cut short, however. In 1956, while deliberately driving recklessly on a country road on Long Island, Pollock and one of his passengers were killed when the car crashed. He was forty-four.

In 1869, at Monet’s urging, the two artists began to paint at La Grenouillere, a fashionable restaurant on the banks of the Seine near Paris. There­after they often worked together, painting the same motif side by side, and together they made an important breakthrough in their technique. Using rapid brushstrokes of brilliant hue, they evoked the reflections of the water and the sky, portraying the optical effects of what they were painting.

Without money for travel, Renoir was forced to spend most of his time in Paris. However, he enjoyed the city animation, its elegant women, and its cafes frequented by artists and writers. In April 1874, he took part in the first Impressionist exhibition with The Loge, his first painting of the world of the theater.

In 1876 Renoir settled in Montmartre, where he often painted his garden, and he also took his easel to the Moulin de la Galette, a bustling outdoor cafe close to his home, where he socialized with his painter friends. He also cultivated a network of friendships in the world of society, which sustained his career as a portraitist, and allowed him at last to lead a comfortable life.

In 1882 Renoir was able to realize his dream of traveling to Italy to study the art of the Renaissance, and to North Africa, to see its brilliant light. These two trips prompted him to question the tenets of Impressionism and attach increasing importance to traditional draftsmanship. As time went on his brushwork became softer and more delicate, and he began to favor soft pinks in his palette. His favorite subjects were female figures, whether in portraits (Young Girls at the Piano) or depictions of nudes in landscape surroundings, which he called “my nymphs.”

In 1903 he settled definitively in Cagnes-sur-Mer, near Nice in southern France. Despite the onset of paralysis in his hands, he never stopped painting large nudes, powerful and magnificent figures rendered in intense, sparkling colors. These large canvases express his ongoing love af­fair with the female body, as well as the irrepressible vitality of his appreciation for the visible world.
