Specifications

Perfect for

• Finished small paintings for gifting
• Portraits, still life and landscape studies

• Shelf, desk and gallery wall pieces

Compatibility

Works with: oil colours, acrylic colours, gesso and texture paste.

Pairs well with: bristle and synthetic brushes, painting knives and a studio or tabletop easel.

Not suitable for: watercolour washes and ink, which need absorbent paper rather than a primed canvas.

How to Use

1. Remove any dust from the surface with a soft dry cloth.
2. If the surface ever feels water repellent, rub it very lightly with the smoothest sandpaper, as the maker advises.
3. Sketch lightly, then block in large areas before adding detail.
4. If the canvas slackens as you paint, tap the wooden wedges gently into the corner slots to tighten it.

Can I use both oil and acrylic on it?
Yes. Camel rates this canvas for both oil and acrylic painting, and its triple acrylic primer means no extra gesso is needed.
