Special offer Triple Canvas Packs Available in Store Now for a Limited time
As an artist, choosing a well priced quality canvas can be confusing
and often a mistake can happen when having chosen to buy a simple
stretched canvas which is not prepared and your painting is ruined by
lack of preparation or experience with a canvas as your chosen surface.
This article gives the low down on why Skills chooses Loxley Artists
Canvas range over others you may find at discount chains.
- Double primed vs triple primed – Does one extra coat of priming
make a difference? Surely double is enough to ensure the the paint
stays on the surface? Take it from an acrylic artist, a triple primed
canvas is necessary if you prefer a quick and hassle free choice. A
cheap double primed canvas = wasting paint and time wasted priming an
extra coat on the cheap canvas when you could be happily painting.
- Traditionally strectched and manufactured, the mitred corners are
made with a free floating tongue and groove so that the canvas can be
re-tensioned if needed using the supplied wedges.
- The larger of the canvases have cross bars to add strength and stability to the frame.
- The cross bars in the Loxley Gold 18mm deep range have rounded edges
to prevent paint lines forming when painting with a ‘heavy-hand’
technique or palette knife.
- There are a vast range of sizes available in the Loxley Gold
Standard/Traditional 18mm depth and in the modern Chunky 36mm depth.
Having decided on a Loxley canvas, you can be assured that your
painting experience will be immediately enjoyable and the results will
be vibrant and long lasting.
