Canvas Print Framing Options
Gallery Wrapped Canvas
All of our artwork comes gallery wrapped. The image is stretched around the sides and stapled to the back of the wooden frame. Your piece of art will be ready to hang, and will include an easy-to-use hanging kit.
Floating Frame
A little “armor for your art” that won‘t obscure the canvas. Your canvas print is gallery wrapped and mounted to a 2″ thick, elegant, black hard wood frame. The art is inset, leaving a 3/8″ space between the art and frame, creating the illusion that your art is “floating.”
FRAME OPTIONS
Black & white matte frames have a sleek lacquer finish and are versatile enough to pair with almost any piece of art. Mottled gold & silver frames are hard wood with a textured metallic finish. Silver pairs well with cool colors and dark backgrounds, while gold pairs particularly well with classic art, traditional décor, and warmer colors. Dark wood can look great with rustic, farmhouse, nature and photography prints.

Directions for Creating Your Own Fall Painted Rocks
1. Outline the Design on the Rock
With a pencil, trace the outline of the bottom half of the truck. Include the bed of the truck, the bumper, and the tires.
2. Draw the Window and Mirrors
Leave room for the “fall decoration” in the middle of the rock, above the bed of the truck. Then trace the top of the truck and the rearview mirrors.
3. Paint the Truck
Choose a bright color to use when coloring in your truck. Color the bed of the truck as well as the top of the truck. You can use gray and black for the bumper and tires.
4. Add Fall Designs
You can use your pencil again to trace any fun fall decor/items that you want in the back of the truck like flowers, pumpkins, or a barrel of apples. Don’t forget the rear view mirror in the middle of the windshield.
5. Fill in White Areas
Next, color in the windshield and rear view mirrors with white. Outline the rear view mirror on the windshield with black. Add red rear lights and draw white lines to accentuate the tire marks.
6. Draw the Banner
With your pencil, trace the outline of a banner on the back of the truck.
7. Fill it in
Fill in the banner with fun colors.
8. Outline and Add Details
Outline the truck, banner, and other items in black. Add groove lines to pumpkins.
9. Finishing Touches
Outline the flowers and add a few accent leaves. You can also add a few stray sprigs of wheat/straw. In a pretty font, write the words “happy fall!” on the back of the truck.
10. Apply Sealant
Optional: Seal the rock with sealant to complete the rock.
Quick Step by Step to Make a Fall Truck Painted Rock
- Sketch out the base of the truck and wheels onto the rock.
- Add the window and mirrors, leaving space for the truck’s contents (pumpkins, etc) to be added later.
- Draw in the designs for truck’s contents and paint frame of the truck in your choice of color.
- Paint the bumper grey and the wheels black.
- Fill in your truck bed’s contents however you like.
- Color in the white parts of the window and mirrors.

Once you finish your painted truck design you can have some fun creating other fall themed painted rocks. Try painting pumpkins, fall leaves, and sunflowers in coordinating colors to display with your truck. Or paint some trucks in different colors to give away as fun little “happy fall” gifts!
You could also adapt this design to paint a vintage truck for almost any holiday; just change the words and fill it with something seasonal.
