Canvas - Stretched - the canvas is stretched on wood bars and is ready for framing.  Canvases are printed for gallery wrapping.

Gallery wrapping - the image continues around the edge of the stretched canvas so the print can be displayed framed or as is (Please note that the part of the image intended for the sides of the stretched canvas are not part of the original painting completed by Carol Thompson.  This extension of the painting is completed by the artist using advanced computer software along with her artistic interpretation).
