With a 12 oz surface, the White Canvas - 20x30 Inch Stretched Cotton Canvas handles heavy media applications. Triple-primed acid-free gesso layers stop paint from absorbing into the fibers. This 3:2 aspect ratio frame uses kiln-dried pinewood to maintain structural tension.
Key Features
- Triple-Primed Surface: Acid-free acrylic titanium gesso covers the 100% cotton weave. Prevents paint from bleeding through the back.
- Kiln-Dried Support: Pinewood bars with 0.75-1.38 inch depth hold the tension. Frame maintains its shape despite high humidity.
- 12 oz Cotton Duck: Heavyweight fabric provides a medium grain tooth for friction. Grips thick oil and acrylic paint layers.
- Back-Stapled Build: Steel staples secure the fabric to the rear frame. Permits painting on all four side edges.
