...and so I decided to create a bit of beach art myself using a pic I shot in Nice on our trip in August.
Rather than frame it, I decided to have it printed on canvas {since it will eventually need to be shipped when we move}.
I gave it a slightly "washed" look in Photoshop and I'm quite happy with how it turned out. I think it will form a good basis for the beach gallery wall project I'll be tackling on my "to do" list.

I love this LIsa. The entire vignette is just perfect!
That is amazing! I have been coveting those big beach photos, but it's so much cooler when it's your own shot!
I LOVE this idea! I have been hesitant to print my images on canvas however, I love a large canvas. I really like the washed out look as well. Thanks for sharing :)

I'm a fan of beach art too! You did a great job! Love yours and I love the washed out business too! You have made me want to frame one that I took of Bondi Beach. Thanks for the inspiration today.
I am a GIANT fan of GIANT beach art and have posted about it a few times so this is right up my alley! I love your photograph, it is fantastic. I also love that you printed it on canvas, so cool!

I love the beach, what a fun way to bring art into a room. I remember once seeing a painting of a bunch of colorful beach umbrellas, loved it.
This is so my style; I just love it!! I can never get enough beach in my life. Bravo!
what a great idea! i have a similar shot from the Brighton Pier last summer that might just need to be blown up...
OK....I'm done for today...this just threw me over the edge. Could not love more....and your good at photoshop too????? Huge sigh.......
