    be cheep, buy a rol of canvas, buy some gesso, buy a big piece of plywood, some staples, maby a staple gun, scretch that shit and when your done pic the taples off shove it in a frame or some shit, no wood workin required, i dunno if the paint would crack if you moves the canvas around though

    yo if your markers are exploding its due too altitude shit or something because they are manufactured somewhere else... im high... but no honestly shake the marker up real good, hold it tip up and pump it with the lid. you have too wait a few, but it lets out the pressure, and they wont explode.

    yeah im doing my first canvas peice as well right now and i use decos and permapaque for the thin lines but i need some help..ive so far written my tag out in gold letters with purple 3d/shadow thing but theres a lot of extra space and i got ideas to fill it but cant think of a good color to go with gold and purple besides white which isnt an option considering the canvas is white

    i don't use airbrush for fades, too much effort.

    and no i never went too school, i've just painted tones of canvas, and keep finding new things too work on. canvas painting really taught me a lot about piecing on walls.

    go to lowes or home depot and buy a 4x8 foot masonite sheet and have them cut it to your desired canvas size ...they do it for free! go to walmart and buy a gallon oflight satin or semi gloss paint.cheaper in the discount section from mixing wrong colors... buy a hand saw/miter box set for like 10 bucks and some nails and a hammer. use 1x2 inch trim wood to make your frames..all well under 100 bucks!!! and you dont need all the wood working tools like those dudes are telling you! or go tp pat catans or michaels and get the canvas multi packs..you can get 16x20 five packs for 20 bucks. dont do what evweryone else is doing! use mixed media for your pieces!
