Default Very large landscapes pictures....where from?

Been trying to find a large landscape picture for our bedroom, but struggling to find one big enough.

Most are 44x24 inches and even looked at the pictures you can split ie: 3 units to make up one picture.

We have a fairly simplistic bedroom, with only the tv and bed in it and having large plains walls, it needs something to break it up.

The room is pretty much made up of creams and light browns, so trying to find a picture that blends in with those colours.

Anyone got any ideas?

EBAY, lots of this sort of thing on there, I bought a 6 ft long, three piece copper plaque of a dragon in flight (yeah I know I collect them), from there for £200. Canvas's are cheaper.

Many photographic studios and lots of graphic design places will have large format plotters. They will usually have a library of hi-res non-copyright images and/or access to online portfolios which you can browse through. Choose the image you want and tell them the size and they'll be able to plot one out for you on a selection of media substrates from a range of papers to canvas. If you have a good enough image of your own already and know someone who works in the pre-press area of printing they'd probably sneak it through for you FOC. I used to do quite a few for the price of a pint. Haven't got time to do my own these days I've got a dozen panaramas of cornwall to finish that I've been meaning to do for 6 months

Just bought some large oil on canvas paintings.

From near Milan.

So not very useful.

Cheap though.

Have a look at LucyArt. I've used them for "printing" a digital photo (excellent service BTW) as a canvas print but they do loads of prints. I like this one. Custom size options go upto 72x48"
