Bring your artwork to life with the texture and depth of a stretched canvas print.   Your image gets printed on one of our premium canvases and then stretched on a wooden frame of 1.5" x 1.5" stretcher bars (gallery wrap) or 5/8" x 5/8" stretcher bars (museum wrap).   All stretched canvases ship within 3 - 4 business days and arrive "ready to hang" with pre-attached hanging wire, mounting hooks, and nails.

Stretched canvas prints look beautiful with or without frames.

Shikoku is the smallest, least populated of Japan’s four major islands. It’s known for its 88-temple route, temples and shrines associated with Kobo Daishi, a famous saint-monk. As pilgrims follow the route, they collect “gofu” papers that are issued at each shrine or temple. These papers are symbols of spiritual beings and act as talismans, or amulets. Pilgrims also carry with them small books (called “goshuin-cho”) that are stamped (like a rubber stamp, usually with red ink) at each of the temples/shrines.

In my Japanese ephemera collection, I have both a Shikoku pilgrimage book and more than 80 gofu papers, dating back to the early Showa period (which began with the reign of Emperor Hirohito in 1926 and ended in 1989). I’m in the process of photographing and scanning these papers, the red ink stamps, and then combining this special material with other aged papers and postage stamps to make completely new and different Shikoku-based collages/photomontages.

I'm a photographer, writer, educator based on Whidbey Island in the Pacific Northwest, specializing in photomontage work, combining photos I've taken of rust, walls, peeling paint, birds, postage stamps, trees, etc. into images that are completely new, different, and often weird. I also create physical collages, then find myself photographing parts of them to include in my photomontages. It's crazy, but it's fun! My career has encompassed writing guidebooks (primarily about where to photograph in California), newsletters (guides for photographers about where to photograph in the United States), leading photo workshops, and conducting online classes.
