Signature Canvas has everything you need to get started in this time-honored and exciting medium. We sell artist canvases in any size you want, perfectly customized to your specifications. If you are just learning to paint, we recommend you start with small sizes and acrylic surfaces. As your confidence grows, work your way up to larger projects. It is also advisable to buy primed pre-stretched canvas as opposed to stretching and priming yourself. Let us do the stretching so you can focus on the creative aspect of your oil or acrylic painting painting.

Types of Pre-Stretched Canvas

Once you've decided on the size you want to try first, you can select between cotton and linen surfaces. Cotton is often a good choice for beginners because it features an even weave and a strong, forgiving surface. Linen, created from yarn spun fibers of the flax plant, is preferred by many professional, experienced painters for its durability and beautiful long-lasting finish.

Both of Signature’s cotton and linen artist canvases are exceptional quality and will allow you to pursue your artistic goals successfully.
