That is beautiful Chris! I have been playing on those canvases some too. I tend to prefer smoother surfaces, but have been suprised by what I've done on them, and actually find I am liking that toothy surface.

Just bought myself one of these linen canvases after being severely told off by Sharon Knettell about using that tacky stuff, cotton canvas, for painting on.
The colour of the clear-primed linen is so lovely I think I might just frame it as it is.

Thanks! LOL, I'd like to wallpaper my studio in the stuff, it's so pretty.
John, here's a close up of the weave - I'd say it's in between -not the regular, mechanical pattern of lots of prestretched stuff, but not quite as irregular as much of the Belgian linen. Fewer slubs, though.

Chris this vignette is so lovely. I like the contrast of the grey canvas against the skin tones. Just beautiful!

Just now seeing this one Chris - always such a pleasure to see your new works! Another stunner. Can't wait to see what you can do in 3D.
