A canvas hides brush strokes behind texture, but acrylic shows them. That is why artists, designers and families with a favourite painting choose custom acrylic wall art: colours look lit from behind, black stays deep, and fine lines stay sharp. It is not only for photographs, which surprises many first-time buyers. Watercolours, pencil sketches, digital illustrations, calligraphy, children's drawings, posters and logos all print well.
Everything depends on the file. For a painting, photograph it in daylight, flat on, with no shadow across the surface, or scan it. For a digital design, export at the largest size you have, in PNG or high-quality JPEG. The automatic quality check reads your file against the size you pick and warns you if the resolution will look soft, so you can reduce the size or find a better source before paying. It is far better to learn this now than after printing.
Artwork often has a deliberate white margin. Decide whether you want it kept as part of the design or trimmed away, because the print runs edge to edge. You can confirm the result in the 3D preview. If a design is meant for a corporate space, check logo colours against the original brand file, since small differences are easier to spot in gloss. For a general look at turning pictures into wall pieces, see personalized wall decor, or order a custom-sized frame if your artwork has an unusual shape.
How to photograph or scan a painting so the colours survive printing
Shoot near a large window on a cloudy morning, with the painting on a wall and your phone parallel to it. Switch off the flash, which creates a bright patch on oil and acrylic paint. Stand back and zoom slightly so the corners are not stretched, then crop the edges in any phone editor.
A flatbed scan is better for sketches and watercolours on paper, at 300 dpi or higher. For a large original, scan in parts and stitch them. If you only have a photo taken at night under a yellow bulb, retake it. Colour cast is the most common reason a print looks different from the original.
Choosing a size and thickness for artwork rather than a photo
Detailed art, such as mandala work or pen illustrations, needs more pixels than a soft portrait, because the eye looks closely at line quality. If the checker warns you, go one size down rather than ignoring it. Flat colour graphics and typography are more forgiving and can often go larger.
Choose 3mm for pieces up to 20×30 inches, which is a good weight for rented flats and shelves. Both thicknesses are printed identically, so choose by size and by how substantial you want the piece to feel. Choose 5mm for large installations, for studios and for anything you want to feel substantial. Expect gloss, so hang it away from a window that faces the artwork directly. In the monsoon, dim light can make dark paintings look flatter, so a small picture light helps.

Interior & Placement Tips
- Pair vivid abstract or folk art with a quiet wall. A plain off-white or soft grey background lets the colours do the work.
- Keep a small gap between pieces in a series, around 5 to 7 cm, so they read as one story.
- Place art that has large dark areas away from a bright window, because gloss reflects light and can hide the deep tones.

Frequently Asked Questions
Should I choose 3mm or 5mm acrylic?
3mm is lightweight and goes up to 20×30 inches. 5mm has a thicker feel and is the choice for larger displays, up to 48×96 inches.
How long does an acrylic frame take to arrive?
Production is typically 1–3 working days after payment and file check. After dispatch, metro locations usually take 2–5 days and other locations 4–8 days.
What photo resolution do I need?
Higher resolution gives a sharper print, especially at large sizes. The upload step checks your photo and warns you if it is too small for the size you picked.
Does the frame come ready to hang?
Stainless-steel studs are included on eligible sizes from 12×18 inches and above. Smaller sizes suit a shelf or table.
What file formats can I upload for my artwork?
JPEG and PNG work best, along with other common image formats. Upload the largest, least compressed version you have. A PDF poster should first be exported as a high-resolution image. The automatic checker tells you straight away whether the resolution suits the size you chose.
Will the colours of my painting match the original exactly?
We print the file you send with 12-colour HD printing, so the result depends heavily on how the original was captured. Screens also differ from print. A daylight photo or a scan gives the closest result, and the preview gives a sense of the look.
Can I print only part of a large painting?
Yes. Crop the file before uploading or drag the image inside the editor to select the section you want. This is useful for detailed works where one corner is the most interesting area. Make sure the cropped part still has enough resolution for the size.
Is acrylic wall art suitable for a limited-edition print run?
Each frame is printed to order from your file, so you can order one or several copies. We do not number or certify prints. If you plan to sell editions, keep your own records and discuss quantity pricing with us on WhatsApp before ordering.
Do I need permission to print someone else's artwork?
You should only upload artwork you created or have the right to reproduce. We print what the customer provides, so the responsibility for the rights stays with the person ordering. If you are unsure, check the licence of the image first.
What if my artwork has a white border that I want to keep?
The print runs edge to edge, so a white border in the file will appear as a white border on the acrylic. If you want it, leave it in. If not, crop it away before uploading. The 3D preview shows which one you have.
