Review on Artlicious Classroom Artist Canvas Painting by Summer Hendricks

Revainrating 3 out of 5

custom format; some did not fit in the 8 " x 10 " frame

This purchase came in two separately packaged 12 packs of 8x10 canvases. The canvas appears finely and neatly wrapped and the gesso is evenly applied. However, out of 24 panels, 5 were not cleanly cut and did not fit in an 8 x 10 frame and were about 1/16 inch oversized on one or two corners. Of the remaining 19, 6 were questionably tight in at least one and sometimes two corners. Apply pressure to the corner joints, which over time can cause these joints to fall apart (I've had this before). So 13 out of 24 panels are perfect and without problems. I use them for pictures that are meant to be framed, I use sloppy cuts for study or brushstroke/color blending practice that will never see a frame. I have to do the extra work of testing and grading panels to avoid future problems with ones not fitting in my finished standard size frames. the frame didn't bother me. I bought this size a year ago. nel in Blick, Soho Urban Artist and other brands and I had no problem with size differences.

Pros
  • Ideal for a small home
Cons
  • Questionable purchase for the elderly
