This is a bespoke typo­graphic can­vas print that Coulson Macleod cre­ated for a new beauty salon/clinic called Beauty Defined.

Your Coulson Macleod can­vas typo­graphic art print would be of museum qual­ity. Each print is hand-mounted and fin­ished with the finest mater­i­als by expert local craftsmen.

Your canvas-mounted print would be pro­duced using the very latest giclée print tech­no­logy. Heavy­weight 450gsm, 100% cot­ton, Bril­liance Chro­mata White premium fine art matte can­vas is used to ensure col­our repro­duc­tion and longev­ity are at their abso­lute max­imum. This can­vas is optical bright­ener agent free (optical bright­ener causes yel­low­ing over time) and has passed the Blue Wool stand­ards test for light fast­ness (up to 75 years) and is one of only a few canvases to achieve this.

Your can­vas art­work is hand-sprayed with five coats of Glam­our II Giclée Matt Var­nish to ensure max­imum pro­tec­tion and a smooth con­sist­ent fin­ish. This is a non-yellowing, water-based var­nish that enhances the col­our of pig­men­ted and ultra­chrome inks on matte media and increases res­ist­ance to image fad­ing. It also pro­tects images against mois­ture and abra­sion. The com­bin­a­tion of Glam­our II Matt Var­nish with Bril­liance Chro­mata White can­vas deliv­ers the most archival and colour-stable fine art repro­duc­tion available.

Just had some really great close-up shots of our lim­ited edi­tion can­vas print ‘Amer­ican Noise’ — and we think they look fantastic.

Our can­vas prints are fin­ished by hand, by exper­i­enced local crafts­men.  We use a nat­ural (100% cot­ton), tex­tured can­vas, com­ple­men­ted by a chunky (45mm deep) Dutch spruce frame.

Coulson Macleod canvases are prin­ted using pig­men­ted inks that are UV stable and sealed with UV pro­tect­ing var­nish and, if looked after cor­rectly, will last for many years. Typ­ic­ally this can be in excess of 75 to 100 years.

Here are a few sug­ges­tions to help you to look after your canvas.

• Avoid hand­ling as much as pos­sible to pre­vent scuffs and scratching.

• Avoid dis­play­ing in dir­ect sun­light. Although UV stable inks and var­nish are used, dir­ect sun­light will reduce the lifespan of your canvas.

• Avoid dis­play­ing your can­vas in areas of extreme and fluc­tu­at­ing tem­per­at­ures and humidity.

• Never clean using a damp cloth, solvents, or clean­ing fluids.

• Should dust settle on your can­vas then remove with a feather duster or use a soft brush to wipe while using a vacuum. Do not let the vacuum nozzle touch the can­vas surface.

• Avoid con­tact with mois­ture. Should any mois­ture come in con­tact with your can­vas then dab gently with a dry, lint-free, cloth to remove and avoid wip­ing and rubbing.

• Can­vas is a nat­ural product and will stretch over time. Your can­vas will be framed onto high-quality double-laminated kiln-dried stretcher bars. Should your can­vas appear to sag, these enable you to re-tension your can­vas by care­fully tap­ping the wedges.
