Description
Claessens 166 Medium Universal Primed 415gsm
Each type of artist’s canvas is given a specific treatment after gluing. ‘Universal canvases’ are given two primer layers of Titanium white base bound with an acrylic binder. Because this primer is water based, these canvases can be dried in the dry-air oven, where the water can evaporate more quickly.
Universal canvases are suitable for both oil paint and acrylic paint.

I love my huge linen roll. I bought it for my upcoming 3-month trip to the Kimberley and remote WA. I'll be living in a tent and space is limited, so I liked the idea of cutting pieces to paint and draw on as I needed them, rolling them up, stretching them on my return, and continuing to work on them as necessary. The surface is fantastic to work on - holds paint beautifully, and is also very pleasing to draw on in pens or charcoal.
