I just made 7 canvases on vynal records, I dont got flix right now, but I should tomorrow. Just gotta figure out how to post flix. Oh, your most likely not wondering but just incase you are, I did it with paint pens.
i do alot of 'canvases' on old broken skateboards... but its not as smooth as a nice well primed canvas... ive done one on an old spray can also... ill do more maybe n post em up

im trying to get into the hole canvas thing.....can anyone tell meeh wat gesso is and y i shuld use it.......sorry this sounds stupid.lol
gesso is what is used to prime a canvas it prevent the acidity from the canvas to change the colors of your paint trought time and also it makes your canvas more resistant and flexible which prevents it from cracking and/or pelling off...on top of that its easyer to use a canvas that is been primed with gesso than one that haven't been prime all the art stores sell pre-primed canvas' anyways, too start, start with one that are pre-made when you catch on canvas' you can start making your own
black books and trains are stickyz..so y cant a canvas thread be a sticky? its another way to get our point accross, a good amount of ppl so far are posting pix so far too...eh, i think it should be.
we simply need another forum section for art... dope canvases, love that one of the moving train dark. i suggest to start canvases goto a like wallmart and buy some 100% cotton by the meter (pretty darn cheap) and get some gesso at an art store... dont frame it isnce you wont want to keep it prolly n its easier to store rolled up then a frame... just practice stuff till u het the hang of it then frame em n all.
