The Design Style of LLGorman

When you commission Linda to create your Pet Art on canvas, you are getting a magnificent, custom, one-of-a-kind art piece based on her years of experience in amplifying the underlying details drawing out texture and color richness.

The images at the far left show the original photograph provided by a few Linda's clients with her final art design shown at the near left.

You can see that Linda is not simply printing photography on canvas. Each photograph recieves custom art treatment depending on the nature and quality of the photograph and features within the image. Click any Final Art Design to view an enlargement of the image revealing the detail. Keep in mind that the actual art printed on canvas brings out even more texture.

Depending on the composition of the photo, Linda will select either the 12"x12" fomat or the 16"x12" format. The dimensions represent the size of the face of the finished piece. Typically, Linda will crop the final piece to 15"x15" (or 19"x15") such that the edge of the image wraps around the 12"x12" (or 16"x12") stretcher bars ("gallery wrapped"; see image below for detail). Please note that the 16" edge of the 16"x12" format can be either width ("landscape" format) or height ("portrait" format).

In some cases, if important features of the image are too close to the edge such that those features would wrap around the edge when gallery wrapped on stretcher bars, Linda will instead maintain the image within the 12"x12" area (or 16"x12" area) and add a color-coordinated border around the image that will appear on the edges of the finished piece. Click the top right image (under "Final Art Design") to see use of the color border.
