Bartlett 2.23.25 – Sunday (6:30 PM) Closed (#193968738)

This 6x6 is of equal proportion. Belgian Linen - primed weight 14.1 oz.. Its double sized and quad primed with an archival quality oil primer impervious to paints leaching through that harm the fabric. For oils or alkyds only. Its highly absorbent and has excellent qualities of luminosity. It has a warm yellowish hue and is an exceptionally smooth surface! Linen is strong and its natural oils keep it flexible and prevents disintegration. The luxuriously smooth surface is perfect for portraits and detail type work. There is a 516 gap between the canvas and frame eliminating the unwanted lines that occur when the gap is less. We never use finger joints in our wood frames which often fail under tension and over time - the glue joints give up and are unsuitable for paintings intended to last for centuries. Patented 3.25 wide heavy duty keyable cross braces allow the canvas frame to be tensioned in the middle where the tension is needed the most! The Stretcher Bars are slotted
