These superior quality canvas boards are made by laminating 100% cotton canvas onto high quality boards of excellent stability, stretched by hand for correct tension with tailored corners and then triple coated with one coat of acid free sizing and two coats of highly pigmented primer. This helps to give the boards a balanced absorbency and tooth which prevents sinking of oil colours and improves adhesion.
Blue Acorn Artists' Canvas Boards are prepared for immediate use and suitable for use with oil (including water mixable oil), alkyd and acrylic colours.
The medium grain surface is ideal for all techniques including heavier applications of colour.
