Photos on canvas are a great way to reproduce images. For years, canvas prints have been a popular method for creating copies of original artwork. Traditionally, these images were created using offset printing. More recently, since the 1990s, there have been two alternate methods for creating photos on canvas. The first method, dye sublimination, is the most common and uses a printer that uses heat to transfer dye to a medium that can transition between the solid and gas states without going through the liquid stage. Tiny heating elements will change temperature rapidly so that certain amounts of dye will be applied depending on the amount of heat in that area. Additionally, inkjet printers can also be used to create photos on canvas, although sublimination is the most popular method.
