Product Description

Artfix Hand Primed Linen...Artfix Linen has been handcrafted for over 30 years by the Narozni family in Provence France. The climate is dry and warm ideal for the slow and even drying of primed canvas surfaces. Artfix Linen features unsurpassed archival characteristics. each canvas is guaranteed not to peel crack or flake and will not fluctuate or lose inner dimensional stability due to changes in humidity and temperature. Artfix linen is double sized to completely protect the material from the adverse effects of oil primers and oil paints. Up to 6 layers of ground is then applied for an utterly flawless support surface.This linen is a strong tightly woven fabric suitable for all techniques. The primer is a Lead Style Oil Primer which provides the qualities and characteristics of traditional lead-based ground without its toxicity. This oil primed surface offers a unique absorbency allowing oil paint pigment to sink into the surface of the canvas increasing the dimensionality and depth of the painting and providing a glow that radiates from within the painting when over-painted with thin glazes. This is very expensive linen therefore we are offering cut sizes. We are working off a large 84 inch wide roll if you would like several continuous yards or a smaller piece drop us an email and we will be happy to quote.
