Jun 2, 2023 at 11:43 comment added Joachim @BornToCode Yes, cutting off the door in the painting would mess up the composition. But, to be fair, the current composition seems to have the painting's edge exactly at the door's left edge, so having part of that side be folded around the frame would only improve the composition, as the eye isn't drawn to it as much as it is now. Is that an option?
Jun 2, 2023 at 9:09 comment added BornToCode I feel that how it's currently made it's not ideal for stretching because the left side of it has some details on the edge that won't be visible when looking on the front if stretched on the sides (so painting would look 'missing' when looking from the front). Adding mirrored background on the sides felt a bit non-natural to me so that's why I thought about continuation with a blurred background (with similar texture to the sides)
Jun 2, 2023 at 9:05 comment added BornToCode I'm taking about a painting, the above link I wrote was just something I could find online where blurred background was added on the sides.
Jun 2, 2023 at 8:13 comment added Joachim @BornToCode That's not a painting though, but a printed image. Nevertheless, the concept of hanging them on canvas is taken from the medium of painting, so is imitation, and I would still consider it sub par. Were you talking about a painting, or a print (of a painting) all along?
Jun 1, 2023 at 20:48 comment added BornToCode What I meant by blurred background is something like this: m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61mHb9oCbsL._AC_SL1000_.jpg Do you consider such thing as a cheap trick? Some painting can't be stretched properly (e.g. due some detail on the edge of the painting that won't be visible as a whole when looking from the front if stretched to the side) so I'm searching for an alternative
