Hi Brenda,

Linen canvasses are expensive in my Country, so, if you don't want to get rid of them, the procedure is simple... Sand the canvas and apply a coat of paint as if you were staining it, two or more coats may be necessary in order to hide whatever you painted before, because sanding it doesn't erase the previous image completely. Don't worry, you're not damaging your work, Rembrandt always did it and nobody diminishes his work.
