Winsor Newton Artists Canvas Board Review

While I like this board, it has an odd knot. It comes between the back of the panel and the surface. The back is completely smooth so I don't know how it happened. I thought I could paint over it, but now it's noticeable. I will be buying more hoping this bundle will not be with others.

Many artists say that these canvases are not good for painting as they are very thin compared to thicker canvases. However, I wouldn't recommend them to anyone looking for cheap canvas panels that work wonders. They perform as well if not better than most premium canvases I've bought. Heck, it's even cheaper to do it yourself!

This canvas is of excellent quality. Good surface for oil and a pleasure to apply paint. It is very durable. Recently bought from another online retailer who claimed they were thicker and stronger than the competition and at a better price. It was so cheaply made and flimsy. The low price wasn't a "good deal". Winsor Newton's canvas is far, far superior to the competition!

Sorry my photo is a bit graphic but that's the point. I was looking for a screen and accidentally bought a screen. I'm a beginner artist so I didn't even know such a thing existed. But the picture turned out great anyway and the buyer likes it. There is no hook or anything to hang it on the back, so you need to install it yourself. But everything worked out great.
