Turning Artwork into Canvas Signage for Bendigo Homes and Shops

Got a digital design, illustration, or photograph you want on the wall? Here's how to turn artwork into a canvas print for your home, shop, or studio.

What Works on Canvas

Illustrations, digital art, photography, graphic designs, and typography all translate well to canvas. The texture of the canvas adds warmth and depth that flat paper or vinyl can't match. Bold colours and high-contrast designs look particularly strong.

What doesn't work well: very fine detail that gets lost in the canvas texture, small text that becomes unreadable, and low-resolution images that pixelate at large sizes.

File Requirements

You need a high-resolution file - 300 DPI at the intended print size is ideal. For a 1200mm x 800mm canvas, that means a file around 14,000 x 9,500 pixels. If you're working from a digital illustration or design file, export at the highest resolution your software allows.

Vector files (AI, SVG, PDF) scale perfectly to any size. Raster files (JPEG, PNG, TIFF) need to be large enough for the print dimensions. Not sure if your file is big enough? Check the file prep guide or send it through and we'll confirm.

Sizing and Mounting

Canvas prints can be produced on stretched frames (ready to hang) or as flat panels for custom framing or wall mounting. Standard sizes range from small desk pieces (300mm x 200mm) up to feature-wall scale (2400mm x 1200mm and beyond). We print custom sizes to match your wall space.

For Businesses

Canvas signage in a shop or cafe doubles as decoration and branding. A large canvas with your business name, an illustrated design, or a hero photograph creates a focal point and a social media backdrop. Pair it with matching window graphics for a cohesive look.

For Homes

Turn your own photography, a commissioned illustration, or a favourite digital artwork into something physical for your walls. Canvas prints make distinctive gifts too - a family photo, a pet portrait, or a meaningful location printed at scale.

Send us your artwork and tell us the size - we'll confirm file suitability and quote the print.
