Product Description

We have tried many brands of prestretched canvas; and we have listened to customer feedback as well. One brand that keeps coming out on top is Winsor & Newton. Their prestretched canvases are made with 8oz natural cotton duck. The stretcher bars are 13/16 inch deep, and feature staple free edges- the canvas is stapled onto the back of the stretcher bars, so the edges can be painted to display finished paintings with or without framing. Each canvas is triple primed with acid free sizing and two coats of highly pigmented acrylic primer (gesso). This priming offers balanced absorbency and tooth, while preventing oil paints from sinking or soaking through. The stretcher bars themselves are kiln dried and have beveled edges. Each canvas is stretched by hand, and there is ample canvas on the back if you should decide to restretch the finished painting. Ideal for use with oil, acrylic, and alkyd paints. Perhaps best of all, we are offering these cavases in packages of six. These six packs are 40% off of the retail list price, making them incredibly affordable!

Customer Reviews

good for beginners
This product is just the right size for beginners...not too small to make painting difficult, and not too big to make a finished product seem daunting. The texture and stretching is quality, and 6 for $20 is a good price.

Good Canvas but not for acrylics or water colors
Good quality canvas, but I had difficultly with acrylics and water colors. You have to use a lot of paint with acrylics to get it to look nice. I would recommend these for oils or other thinker paints. Oh and they have a really weird smell, not a big deal but if you've got a sensitive nose it will bother you. Price wise this is a really nice deal.
