VANCOUVER, June 15 /PRNewswire/ -- Modern art lovers now have a new option when it comes to decorating the home or office. A fresh twist to traditional artwork is PiKaSSO KiDS (http://www.pikassokids.com), an e-based graphic art studio that recycles and reworks children's art into contemporary, stylish and meaningful masterpieces. Working with a wide variety of clients, from parents to interior designers, PiKaSSO KiDS transforms children's drawings into high-end, yet affordable, art. Printed on archival, scratch-resistant canvas, each piece is unique and customized to coordinate with personal design wishes, colors and styles.
"When people talk about PiKaSSO KiDS, the one word that comes up over and over again is 'surprise,'" says Tom Moore, PiKaSSO KiDS' president. "No one can believe how a sample of children's art can be transformed into such an impressive, stunning product, and our clients are always surprised by our work. There's an exciting sort of beauty and creativity that comes out in a child's drawing. Our graphic artists spot those elements immediately, building upon it to produce a very fashionable and 100 percent original work of art. It's been said that PiKaSSO KiDS isn't 'kids art' per se, but you can easily see the child within the art."
PiKaSSO KiDS' printing and production process incorporates high quality, environmentally friendly products. It's also an affordable option in the marketplace when compared to services offering enhanced photo printing, despite being designed by highly skilled graphic artists that use state-of-the-art technologies and materials. After a successful soft launch in November 2009, PiKaSSO KiDS is now making a more official debut, announcing its unique product to targeted, niche audiences, such as interior designers and those in the art industry.
"Picasso once said that all children are artists, but the problem is how to remain an artist once they grow up," Moore says. "The art from PiKaSSO KiDS is fit for adults and children alike as it's a type of genre that transcends generations. It can easily go with a child into adulthood, reminding him or her of 'the child within' while playing a very functional, fitting role in home decor."
