Skin for a Canvas started life as an ambient acoustic experience in the shape of Dani Burnett and Ian Mortimer. The two started on separate paths, each of them in different well known metal bands from the Portsmouth, United Kingdom area, and in 2007, their paths met and a strong musical partnership was formed. After four years of writing and planning, Skin for a Canvas was born and the debut album The Soul Creates a Harmony was self-produced and released by the pair.

In late 2011, Dani Burnett chose to leave Skin for a Canvas but Ian Mortimer decided to carry on with the project under the same name as the album had received good responses during their live performances and Skin for a Canvas was steadily gaining reputation and experience along the way. Afterwards, the second Skin for a Canvas album was mastered for release in early 2012 to bring new music to Skin for a Canvas performances.
