These are some of my brug photos from last summer that I did some graphic design on. . Then I print them on canvas and they look like watercolors.
The first is L'amour.
Brugmansia artwork

Those are lovely shadowgirl!

This is the L'amour with an Impressionist style.
very pretty! I wish I had that kind of talent!
Very pretty.
Oh how wonderful Loretta. You did a great job. Still enjoying my windchimes. Do I need to bring them in for winter?? The glass won't break will it if it gets to cold??
beautiful!
Lovely!!!
Very nice, you have talent!
Very nice Loretta. What a neat idea. Do you plan on framing and hanging them?
Very pretty! I did some stuff like that last winter with lots of different flowers. Makes the time go by when the weather isn't conducive to being outside :) I'll have to try it with some brugs -- those are so nice!!!
SG...very nice. Please tell me about the printing on canvas...is this something you did yourself or had done. I have photoshop and could do the design...but I am wondering about the printing. I would love to do it. I do have an ink jet printer but don't know if I could print on canvas.
Thank you for your help...Margie
Gosh, those are very pretty. Wouldn't something like this make a great Christmas gift?
Gorgeous!!!
It would make a wonderful gift or a nice prize for a contest. Actually they are pretty easy to do if you have Photoshop Deluxe or higher. Or some other photo editing program. Just make sure you use a copy and save the original. The way I learned was just playing around with it.
There are a couple I am framing, when I do will post a picture. As for printing on canvas, you can buy the printable canvas at an office supply store like Office Depot. They have their own brand and it costs about a 1.00 per sheet. There is s coating on one side and is plain canvas. If you print on the coated side the colors are more vibrant and the edges are sharper. But I like printing on the other side, it looks just like a soft watercolor. You can print on both sides and it does not bleed through
Donna, I bring mine in and wrap each ornament in bubble wrap because the fishing line degrades more easily in severe weather.
Beautiful, Loretta! I especially like the second L'Amour!
Margie, you can buy canvas that has been prepped to go through a printer. I got some at a computer show (haven't used it yet), but you could probably find it someplace like compusa, staples or office depot.
Ronna, I like the second one too. But I think it need some lyellow or pale green on the leaves to reflect some light. It does look like a painting though.
Thanks for your speedy replies SG and Ronna...I will check for it at an office supply store...I even have a coupon for Office Max so I will try there too.
I love how it looks...
Margie
These are very nice!! Would make a great present !
Bonnie
Oh wow, those are nice. They would make great note cards.
I have a brug print from a painting Brugcrazy did and I'd love to have a couple to go on either side of it. http://davesgarden.com/forums/t/144944/
They are beautiful! Sure would add alot to a room. I have always loved Jeanne's paintings.

I just love that print Jeanne made.
Loretta, they look so great!!! You are so artistic.
Shadowgirl, you should go into business! I know, I wouldn't be the only one lined up for a print. So let me know if it ever happens. :D
Loretta, those are so pretty. They would be lovely to frame and hang. Wouldn't they be wonderful in a garden or sunroom room?
Does anyone know where an addict could get some Brugmansia Artwork?
I would be willing to work something out for brug artwork. You could even use your own pictures. I love to barter, wish we had a bartering forum.
That CG by Brugcrazy is very nice. Now that is talent!
I really love the "Isabella" piece you showed at the top of this thread. I am a newbie Brug addict, with a 3 ft. Isabella and three babybruggies from cutting that are growing like crazy, a CG, Betty Marshall, and Knightii; and now, thanks to Honibee, I have some apple Blossom sprouting seedlings. So I haven't even seen a bloom of my own. I'm waiting for the fruits of my labor to materialize this summer. Can't wait!
What kind of a deal could you make with me, Shadowgirl, to have a Isabella print like the one you posted?

Here is mine, just learning....I love your's shadowgirl, it's beautiful
It is very pretty.
Shadowgirl, beautiful brug things you have done. And thanks so much for all the valuable info. The closestStapes or Office Depot are 130 miles from here. But i will get down there and get some of the canvas paper stuff to try. Thanks again. Donna
Try ordering it online. I' m pretty sure both have a website.
BC-That's pretty. See it is easy.
Thank you!
Thank you Shadowgirl!
