How to Stretch your Canvas- lecture and demo

For unit 6 and 7 you will need to make a painting on a traditionally stretched canvas you yourself have made. You have two options, you can use the pre-fabricated Fredrix stretcher strips or you can request/use pre-cut stretcher bars made from wooden beams to drill and assemble for a deeper canvas. I will show you both methods and talk at length about their advantages and proper way to assemble them. Please do not hesitate to ask questions or ask for help with this process it's not exactly easy by any "stretch" of the word. (HaHAAA, see what I did there) Once you have your canvas made please make sure you prime it with gesso, put your name on it, and then check out units 6 and 7. The last two units have their own set of concerns so please consult with me about them if you're confused. Website: https://sites.google.com/site/artwith...
