About

Bringing joy to homes & building futures for artists.

At Canvit, we believe in the power of art to transform lives- on both sides of the canvas.

Our Mission is:

  1. Empower talented artists in Vietnam: To make a living doing what they love through training, fair pay, and global visibility.
  2. Bring lasting joy to our customers: By turning their favorite memories into handcrafted art they can see and smile at every day.

Each piece is more than a painting. It’s a moment relived. A future supported.

Tom Westgate | Founder

The seed for Canvit was planted during my travels throughout South East Asia, where we discovered a wealth of artistic talent and passion.

We witnessed firsthand the incredible skill of local artisans, who often struggled to find a global platform for their work. Inspired by the desire to share these treasures with the world, we set out to create a digital marketplace that would bridge the gap between art lovers and these talented creators.

Canvit is the result of countless journeys, conversations, and connections with artists from diverse backgrounds.

Our love for unique, handcrafted pieces and the belief that everyone deserves access to authentic, affordable art have been our guiding lights. We're proud to offer a seamless way for customers to bring their own visions to life, or choose from a curated selection of designs, all while supporting the amazing artists who make it all possible.

Chris Ingate | Head of Growth

I joined Canvit because I believe in the magic our art creates- its power to amplify human potential and spread positivity.

Every time a customer sends us a photo, and we turn it into a hand-painted masterpiece by one of our Vietnamese artists, it’s not just art- it’s a massive pocket of joy. It lets people relive their favorite memories every day and it helps incredibly talented artists make a living doing what they love.

My journey to Canvit started with OneAnother, a volunteering tech company I co-founded to connect people with support in their local communities. That experience taught me to see growth not just as numbers, but as positive impact. And that’s the lens I bring here- helping Canvit grow in a way that lifts up our artists, our customers, and our team.

It’s purpose-driven work, and I’m proud to be part of it.
