Centurion Deluxe Oil Primed 24"x36" Linen Panel, 3 PackSave Up to70%Off list
Starting At: $14.19
White Master Quality Archival Deluxe Linen Panels! Superb performance and color retention! Exclusive OP enhanced oil priming As an oil colorist it is important to work on oil primed surfaces and not universal primed surfaces. The reason is that universal primed surfaces are semi-absorbent. Gesso is absorbent even if it is plate smooth. The paint does not get absorbed as much and sits on the surface more making it easy to blend and manipulate. Granted it is not highly absorbent but the fact remains that some oil will get into the primer and flatten the image. You can get around this by using an under-painting oil ground on top of the surface of a universal ground canvas but this is very time consuming and expensive. Unlike universal ground, our oil priming chemically bonds with the oil paint and is non-absorbent allowing the paint to sit up on the surface with the correct refraction quality of the oil binder. If you use any high-quality oil color we urge you to use an oil primed surface and now we make it affordable! Exclusive OP Enhanced Oil Priming! Centurion Deluxe Professional Oil Primed Linen Panels, specifically designed for oil painters. Superb receptive surface accepts even the thinnest oil color lay down without fragmenting on the surface and is a permanent surface as colors adhere better on it than any other oil primed canvas on the market today! Acid-free and archival, the primed medium-textured linen is cleanly wrapped and adhered to a solid 3mm MDF wood board. Key Features:* Acid-free, Archival Linen Panels* 11oz. Oil Primed* Made of medium weight linen* Exclusive OP enhanced oil priming* Mounted on 3mm (1/8") MDF wood board* Medium weight and texture* Non warping Perfect For:* Artists of all skill levels* Oil and Alkyd Painting* Archival Longevity* Linen Lovers expecting the best!* Professional Artists, Commissioned work* Traveling, takes up 1/4 the space of a 3/4" canvas For a good value on a smooth linen panel, this is it! The fine linen weave makes details easy when painting still life. Our Centurion canvas is used throughout the world by serious artists ranging from dedicated students to the most world-famous artists. It is the teachers and famous artists that asked us to try to come up with an oil primed linen canvas that if affordable. Not only did we wow them with quality but we also wowed them with the final price. You can buy Centurion Oil Primed canvas mounted to hardboard 3mm panels (1/8" thick), in canvas pads that can be stapled or taped to painting boards, in rolls for stretching your own canvas and in an Elite style stretched canvas engineered to maintain the integrity of the canvas even in the largest sizes.

The slight tooth and incredible priming make each stroke velvety smooth and luxurious. Years ago, we worked with an excellent Italian company in creating a linen canvas that would make oil painting a real pleasure and produce results that were more brilliant than before possible with commercial products. This linen canvas has a fine weave and texture and is created with one coat of natural glue sealer and four coats of oil priming. The Italian priming method was developed over five centuries. The difference is the reliability of the material and the consistency of the finished product. Although processed entirely by hand, the modern assembly line and super clean workplace allow the finished product to be amazingly consistent and beautiful. See More -

The brushed aluminum surface takes primer beautifully, providing texture that grips the primer for a perfect bond. The smooth aluminum surface can be used as is to take advantage of its' beautiful finish, or custom sanded or polished for any texture necessary for your artistic applications. When used as a painting panel, the smooth side can be used as the work’s actual highlights for a modern look— either left bare as is, or sanded/buffed back to the bare metal before varnishing to take advantage of the metallic glow. Simply peel the screened film used to protect both sides, and let your creativity do the rest.

His paintings are a declaration to the dramatic power of representational art. The origin of his inspiration does not lie in academia, but rather his childhood, surrounded by the vivid paintings he saw in Gothic cathedrals as a child. Eric doesn’t aspire to simply paint a figure; he paints a moment, a human experience, and an emotional dialogue that transcends culture, religion and time itself. See More -

Key Features: * Canvas panel and frame bundle * 3 Frames + 3 Canvas Panels * 11oz. oil-primed linen panels * Medium-weight, acid-free linen * Mounted on 3mm (1/8") MDF wood board * Hand-finished and leafed by expert… Get your paints out, we've got the frame and canvas ready! It's a nightmare when a deadline for a show is approaching, and you don't have a frame ready to go. It's ok, we've all been there. It's natural to focus on your work before thinking about the frame, but it is also important to plan ahead. That's why we decided to package our popular Centurion Canvas Panels with our Museum Plein Air Frames. Now you can spend less time shopping and more time creating. Centurion Linen is oil primed so that it bonds correctly with oil paint. The primer is non-absorbent, so oil paints sit on top of the surface and maintain their luster. Acid-free and archival, the medium-textured linen is cleanly wrapped and adhered to a solid 3mm MDF wood board. Our Museum Collection Plein Aire Frames are hand-finished and leafed by expert craftsmen. These frames are available in two styles: Gold Leaf and Antique Black with Gold Trim. The Black frames feature an undertone of gold with a distinctive antique gold liner. Never approach a deadline again without a frame. Play it smart and prepare with a Duo Canvas and Frame pack! Key Features: * Canvas panel and frame bundle * 3 Frames + 3 Canvas Panels * 11oz. oil-primed linen panels * Medium-weight, acid-free linen * Mounted on 3mm (1/8") MDF wood board * Hand-finished and leafed by expert craftsmen (closed corner frames) * Includes hanging hardware (screws, D-rings, and wire) * 3-1/2" wide, 1-3/8" deep, with a 9/16" rabbet depth * Heavy, quality wood with closed seamless corners * Two luxurious finishes: Gold Leaf and Antique Black with Gold Trim Perfect For: * Preparing for a show or exhibit ahead of time * Oil and alkyd paintings * Preparing commissioned work * Adding a finished look of prestige to any piece of art * Museum quality framing solutions * Complimenting any genre of artwork Testimonial Review "I get a bit wary of nearly every product being awarded five stars in most reviews, but frankly, this actually IS a five-star frame. It's heavy, quality wood, with closed, seamless corners reinforced from the back, and the finish is immaculate. Hand-gilded and varnished. Thick wood, which holds screws exceptionally well, and you don't have to worry about screws piercing through to the front. Plus, the frames include hanging hardware such as screws, D-rings, and wire. I also like that the frames are packaged well for safe arrival: each frame has cardboard corners, is wrapped in a bubble wrap sleeve, and is then enclosed inside a made-to-fit cardboard box (which is super handy for shipping your paintings in later). These are not cheap frames, but if you have a special piece that needs to go into a top-tier show or gallery, feel confident when you order these. This is the best frame Jerry's sells. You won't find a better frame for the price." - Billie W See More -

This minimizes the damage to your artwork that can occur with conventional frames. The deeper rabbet provides the perfect depth to position the face of your artwork just below the frame edge for 7/8" and 1½" profile artwork. This protects your artwork while displaying it at its best. Pre-drilled countersunk holes ensure that your artwork attaches easily to the frame and allows it to hang flush against the wall. See More
