Muy bueno saber la diferencia de los lienzos
Me alegro de poder ayudarte. Feliz pintura 💪
is it ok if i use a canvas panel?
Thanks so much for the explanations. I'm a new (actually 68 yr. old) beginning painter so understanding the various types of canvas is a big help.
I am glad that I was able to help you on your new painting journey - Let me know how it goes for you 💪
Thank you so much! Finally, an actual video on the subject matter instead of a commercial disguised as a video. Props.
As a helpful tip for a canvas with an ugly indention or loose (not drum tight) - If the canvas is new: Spray water or use a wet rag on the back and front of the canvas by getting it damp, then air dry. It should tighten up really well. If the canvas is painted: only do this on the back side and it should tighten up the canvas without having to manually do all the work to tighten. Never had a problem doing this and works well - Cheers! I learned this from the late Leonid Afremov.
Thank you so much for sharing this information with us beginners! I appreciate it, really!
Am just starting out and was wondering what the difference between canvases was. Thanks for this video!
Glad that I could help you out. Let me know if there is anything else that you need 😀 Happy Painting 💪
If you are just a beginner,DO NOT go to the LEVEL 3 GALLERY WRAPED CANVAS !
If only stenciling words with acrylic paint, what level should I get?
SO helpful!!! THANK YOU! I wanted to know the difference between the levels, so I googled and found your video! You did a FANTASTIC job explaining the differences! 👍
Glad I could help you out - Happy Painting 💪
That was a great tutorial, thanks. As a beginner artist at the age of 55, this info was more than a lot for me. I got a bunch of canvas pallets as those were cheap and now I am practicing on those. sometimes its frustrating when the results are not even close to the actual scenery, but I still aim to get better by the help of such great artists like you. Thanks much
Fahmida Shaikh I am glad I can help you out - Painting is a skill that takes time to develop.... You will get there. Thanks for watching I have a new art channel ( th-cam.com/users/wildcreates ) Feel free to follow there :)
Great little tutorial, thank you for taking the time to make this. Just an FYI as a beginner myself I reuse canvasses by removing old paint with thinner (odourless) and/or scrapping off. This saves money and great for practice on a budget. Cheers.
I do the same all the time. If I am not happy with what I was painting or I was just goofing around and practicing. I will scrape the paint off and re-use it at a later point. :) Frugal Painter = Happy Painter 💪
Can you just gesso over?
Nice to know about canvasses! Cheaper ones are not the best, but affordable! Instead of gesso, I either use a white primer or just white interior paint from Hardware Store to coat canvas...save even more money and makes a nice surface to work on! Two coats work great!
This was very very helpful and I’m thankful. I’m interested in learning like the fluid art pours and paints of that nature. I always wondered why most artists work after pouring the paint on and leaving it, would dry and it looks soooo fabulous on the canvas. Makes so much sense that there are levels! New sub 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼.
This video was very helpful, I now know the differences of canvases. I will be going straight to the 2nd level canvas next time I see them!
I am glad that my videos can help you out - I started a new art channel that will be perfect for ya ( th-cam.com/users/WildCreates ) feel free to follow there for more videos.
Thank you for this information it is exactly what I was needing.
*They're called "gallery wrapped" canvas. (Level 2, the recessed extra wood piece on the back that hides edges of raw canvas.) Without that feature, it's just called a wrapped canvas.* 👍😀
Loved your explanation 👏 in two lines 😁
Thanks for your valuable information, I learned lots about canvases today God bless you....from Canada

I've been using canvas boards. 12x16 since they were 60% off at hobby lobby. I didn't apply any gesso on my first canvas board and the paint didn't blend well at all, even with the liquid white on there. Gesso is so wonderful!
Canvas boards are great for practice and beyond. But man they act like sponges sometimes.... I am glad that you got it all figured out. Happy Painting 💪
Wild4Games that is the truth, Wild! I have to apply 2 thick coats of gesso just to fill in all the "craters" and get a pretty smooth surface.
That mountain scene is 😍😍😍
Just got started myself. I haven't even done a painting yet, but came here to figure out which canvas I needed. Thank you so much!
Very helpful info...and the mountain painting in the background is very pretty!

Thank you very much. I needed this
I appreciate this video so much I’ve recently gotten into painting and I’ve always wonder what are the difference in the levels. Since I’m starting out I always buy the cheapest artist loft canvas and they work great for now :)
Thanks for the kind words - I am glad that I was able to help you out on your painting adventure. If you need anymore help let me know 😝 - Happy Painting 💪
Great! Thank you! So informative.
Nice video, clear explanation. Thank you for helping me in my artistic journey!
I assumed I should avoid Michael’s since it’s a big box store but just looked at their prices and you’re totally right, they have the best deal if you buy the pro packs and have a coupon - only thing is that sometimes the coupon says it’s valid on anything but there is sometimes fine print that says it can’t be used on certain things (usually the thing I came in to buy)
Thanks maine, big help!
Happy to help buddy.

Love those BRO TIPS
Anything to Help Out - Keep on crushing it - Happy Painting 💪
Ty for such a great video. Got all my answers. As I am beginning I was not aware of the quality of them . I wanted to know what to buy as my canvas is too saggy and not firm. Ty again
I was literally asking this question at Michael’s earlier this and then I found this video 😂
Thank you for thus post...💖💖💖💖💖💖💖...needed the advice
I am glad that I could give you some insight - Happy Painting 💪
Am a brand new painter, actually haven’t formally done one... just practicing, however, I tried your suggestions for tinting the white gesso with a drop of black gesso and put a gray coating on several canvases. Also, I gessoed (is that a word?) several varied sized canvases and did it with a foam roller. Worked well and only took me about 10 minutes. Now I am ready to go after a little more practice on cardboard!!!! 😅

If you find your less-expensive canvases are stretched or sagging, just flip them over and spray the backside with a light mist of tapwater, let it dry and you will have a drum-skin-tight surface on the other side. Easy Peezy.
Excellent information
Thanks
I appreciate your video! thank you!

Thank you for sharing this information. I have been trying to learn the differences in the levels, this was a huge help. I do mixed media and want to get into actual painting. I found your video in a search for learning the different levels. Perfect video. New subbie.

I only paint on level 4, elfenhair tightly woven by dwarfs on a frame made from wood of the tree of life. Primed with unicorn horn white
Max E Bro you are to OP for me - love the swagger :P

Fabulous video, thankyou. My understanding following chats on Facebook with other artists, for acrylic paint pouring, Level 3 gallery wrapped canvases are best. What is your opinion Wild?
Gabrielle Flint I would agree with that unless you plan to frame your canvases (then its a pain) - Thanks for watching I have a new art channel ( th-cam.com/users/wildcreates ) Feel free to follow there :)
Would you sell art done on value packs? I did 2 pieces and they came out amazing. I want to sell them but wasn’t sure if I could since they art technically cheaper canvases. Tfs this info. I just bought a bunch of gallery wrapped and a few super value packs yesterday because they were having a buy one get 2 free. They were out of most but I got what I could get.
Yes I would and Yes I have before - They are still great canvases and will last and extremely long time - I just charge accordingly based on what type of canvas I painted on . I hope that helps 💪
Wild4Games it helped a lot. Thank you so much for responding.
great video indeed!
Trichelle Fine Art Gallery Thanks for watching I have a new art channel ( th-cam.com/users/wildcreates ) Feel free to follow there :)
I am assuming when you paint the canvas and or gesso it you should let it dry before starting acrylic pouring is that correct?
Carol Perez You are correct - Thanks for watching I have a new art channel ( th-cam.com/users/wildcreates ) Feel free to follow there :)
Excellent review

Akiane Kramarik used Master's Touch canvas, in one of her instagram post chicago studio.
Thank you for this super amazing video and the valuable information you gave. I just have a question; what do you think of the Daler Rowney canvas?! Some friends asked me to use them and since then I never changed... more than 8 years.... cause it’s always available and not that expensive. I just feel that I can’t give the small details on them easily! So what do you think ? Waiting for your advice, please! Thanks again and have a great day!
To be honest I dont think I have used that brand yet. Most canvases are generally the same.... They are all made from the same materials (wood, cotton, staples, gesso, etc). The only really difference would be the quality overall. If you like that brand and it works with-in your budget.... I say, stick with it. I hope that helped
I am starting a new art channel next week... if you want me tips you can find them there ( th-cam.com/channels/J0nGU-oZthfagTyVVXiVQA.html )
Wild4Games Thank you so much ... I subscribed to your new channel and will check its videos. Have a great weekend!

Thanks sir
Glad to help 💪
Quick question how do you feel about the Canvas that Bob Ross sells, are they good or not?
Which last longer?
So I went to your video because I was wondering if I bought a decent canvas. Anyways, I bought 3 level 3 24x24’s and 3 level 3 30x40’s noticed that my 24 x 24’s do not have any cross braces. The wood is literally just around the edges and they are one and a half. Do I need to add extra to it if I’m doing texture art?
Thank you so much for all the helpful videos. Do you have any ideas about prepping wood for oil painting? I have been thinking about doing some work on wood pallets.
It depends on the wood - some you can paint right on top of and some you will have to gesso coat
Thank you so much for this information. I’m new to art and what I have learned so far is to gesso my inexpensive canvases and also before that to spray distilled water in them and let them dry to tighten them up. I do need to know what does it mean when it says on the back of the canvas label, 15oz primed/10oz unprimed?
Means they put about 5 oz of gesso on the canvas
Thank you I look forward to more of your videos
I always gesso and sand my canvases anyway so I can get by with the less expensive types. And I never get them unless they're on sale!
Hi, could we use the pouring medium canvas instead of the standard canvas?
I am beginner in acrylic painting.....so which canvas should I use for it.....medium grain or fine grain?
If you are just starting out - what ever is at a fair price will be fine.... Your first works will be a mess. As you start to grow and improve invest into better canvases. Grain doesn't matter, since you will be adding gesso or a base coat
I am new to Oil painting. How do you "paint" finer details like eyelashes, outlines, etc. on an oil painting? Can a brush pen, or Micron pen (Archival Ink) be used on an Oil painting?
I am having canvas roll .....first i should stretch canvas then paint ....or make painting first then put on wooden strecher
Stretch the canvas and mount it to a frame or board then paint 💪
@@Wild4 thank you
Does anyone have an idea how to buy good canvases cheaper in Europe?
I do not mean those of the 1 € shops, I still have to prime them twice before I can start painting and Gesso is not so cheap here.
Could you kindly explain what the difference is between priming with paint and priming with gesso?
I am starting a new channel soon for creative painter and this will be answered there - It will be launched in a week or two. You can follow this channel here to know when the new channel launches.
Gesso is (supposed to be) a blend of acrylic paint, glue, and a ground or filler like chalk. It is used to seal the canvas so the paint isn't sucked into the surface. Like a primer for drywall in house painting. Primer or gesso sticks to and seals the surface and the paint goes on top.
Superb coverage! Wild, have you ever stretched your own canvas? I do, and though I still use value packs, level 3s can be made for a fraction of the price! Bravo, Brother!
Thanks Buddy 😀. I have only stretched my own once. I would like to stretch more, but its more of a question of time for me ha ha ha - Easier for me to buy 💪
Wild4Games an advantage of being retired! Anyway, one other thing that works really good is lightly sanding in between each gesso coat. I use 180 to 210 on mine! I should stretch one and send it to you!
You do know how to live the good life and make me jealous 😋 - Shhh... your giving away one of my next video ideas 😝
I would be honored to have a canvas from ya
@@MrKrenath I always prime and sand regardless. Takes maybe 5 minutes to gesso and 30 seconds to sand when dry. Cheap insurance!
Sir i am hobby artist in acrylic painting
I have canvas roll...but i have don't have strecher bars for ....so will be make painting without this strecher bars
Or i must use strecher bars only
....Seine there is lockdown no shops are open till August...
What can I do....?
I use acrylics and I start with a sketch then use Micro liners to line it, but the canvas is rough so it makes the liner tip weak, and it also smudges when I adjust the sketch. I just need a smooth canvas. What should I get?
I would Gesso and Sand your canvas - This video should help you out ( th-cam.com/video/l1RTfCFAqSw/w-d-xo.html ) its on my new channel feel free to sub there :)
Hobby lobby has masters touch canvases. How do they compare to Micheals artist loft canvases?
allen voss I would have to test for ya. Thanks for watching I have a new art channel ( th-cam.com/users/wildcreates ) Feel free to follow there :)
If we buy a white Rough& smooth sides boards canvas without frames which side we should use ? Rough or smooth ?
Plz tell me difference between rolled canvas nd framed canvas
What about masterpiece canvases? Any thoughts?. I only ask because some artist are saying this and others say that.. and I'm sitting here thinking.. am I happy with my creation. Regardless of the canvas
Silver Surfer MasterPiece is good too. You are correct though, worry about the art and not some much the canvas. Provided you got one that will work for your style. Thanks for watching I have a new art channel ( th-cam.com/users/wildcreates ) Feel free to follow there :)
Can I remove it from the wood frame and put it back on without it messing up the canvas? (for traveling going to roll it up). Wasn't sure if that will mess up any texture on canvas
I’m personally want to sell my paintings online through prints so I can keep the original 😅 so buying Level 2 & 3 wouldn’t matter to me 😭 nor am I’m interested in commission.
8:05 -Splined.
Thank you for filling in the blank 💪
A little suspect that a guy describing canvases doesn’t know the term splined 😳 there are two main types of canvases, back stapled and splined. Very basic stuff
Have you used other brands of canvas? Because everything you've reviewed is available at Michael's...
I have used a few different types - But most of the time Micheal's beats the comp on there prices... hence their products
How have the quality of the level 3 canvases held up thus far? Any warpage particularly with the larger sizes? I just purchased a batch with the 70% off sale. I'm hopeful they are long lasting quality wise.
I have never had an issue yet 💪
@@Wild4 Good to know. Thanks for the clear and concise breakdown of these canvases. It would be great if possibly in a future vid. you discuss how you seal your paintings when completed. Isolation coat, varnish..
When is a canvas slanted?
I have a few where a long side is about 4-5 mm shorter, there are 18×24 inch canvas. I bought the first time in inches instead of cm.
Is that considered slanted?
Is it noticeable that there are a few mm deviations or is that still within the tolerance limit?
If you have a canvas that has imperfections and cant by fixed with easy solutions.... just use it as a practice canvas 💪
Basically Level 2 & 3 has better coating of gesso and support than Level 1 and i’m order to make Level 1 to Level 2 I get add gesso on my canvas ?
Correct?
how many layers of gesso would you put on the canvas pad
Depends on the brand you buy. Some Require none because they come pre-gessoed while others may require 1 to 3 coats on average
for level 1 canvas...do i have to add another layer of gesso if i want to use it for wet on wet style?
Can you please tell me what canvas size is needed for 9 years old kid
You can pick any size that you think would be decent and on sale BUT i would say no smaller than 11x14 and no bigger thank 16x20 - I hope that helps 💪
What kind of canvas we can use for doodling? I have to do the detail work either by using micron pens or normal pens. Please do lemme know. Thank you 🙂
Will you be painting on top of your doodles 💪
@@Wild4 No No, Actually I make doodle art and do very detail work. And I don't have any idea about what kind of paper or Canvas should I use, so I could sell and earn something for me. Can I message you on Instagram and show you my painting there so you can advise me better. Btw Thank you for replying 🙂
@@indeednazmi804 You might try Bienfang brand "Canvasette Paper". It's amazing!
Could I use these for pour paints? art

I want to do a blob painting I saw on youtube, where you layer a circle 3 to 4 times with different colors but the canvas she used caused it to crack. She said use regular canvas and not panel. What would be the best canvas for this. I want a 36 X 48 size.
Cotton Duck Or linen
What is stretched canvas ?
One that is stretched around the frame. Check out my new channel where I post all my art videos.
