Default Canvas Art

the walls are looking very plain and need something..

seen alot of canvas art of Ebay.. unfortunately never seen canvas art in real life so will be buying from a pic of the PC.. does this look shit/dull in real life or does the pics look deap colour / good

seen a wicked pic of london lit up etc.. looks mad, but dont want to part with hard earned cash to find out canvas pics look naff...

any opiions appreciated

should be ok, depends what resolution printing it is...

get a proper canvas tho matey, actually painted by someone...rather than a printed sheet stapled to a wooden frame

Look up popart and roy lichtenstein style stuff...=)

id say get an actual print if you want high quality ''deep'' resolution, as they give varying effects...and it may not be what you are thinking of =)

nice one for the link lookcossie... not my cup of tea tho

max - out of luck really mate.. may sound strange, but with the rwd saff, you could hang the back end out controlled etc, as you know... 4wd, when it bites, it bites bad.. he said the saff was easy to control, but he was obviously pushing it and lost it a little... What a pussy, wants to try FWD..

he parks it out of site, round the corner mate.. dodgy area and all that

i live round the corner from you, near delco bit ypu know the new houses ?? dont say road ame tho, as theifs operate on site
