(sold separately) * 9 different proportions for many canvas sizes (*see chart) * Now with new pocket size grids! Comes in clear for details, or red for simplifying color values * New 6-in-1 grid gives six proportions in one easy to transport grid! * Put away your calculator and pick up your brush!Even half a millennium ago artists knew that in order to realistically depict three dimensional objects in two dimensional artwork, a correct grasp of proportion and perspective was indispensible. Great masters like Leonardo da Vinci and Albrecht Dürer used the grid method to do this; often rigging up complicated equipment and devices designed to superimpose a grid over their subject matter. Now you can bring this art theory to your own creation process with the modern equivalent of those ancient tools: Proportional Compose It Grids! These transparent acrylic grids are available in 9 different proportions which are translatable to nearly any canvas size. Simply choose your grid proportion in relation to your canvas, hold the grid up to your subject, and sketch directly on the grid with a dry erase marker (sold separately) to rough in your composition. It is then a simple matter to transfer the grid and the image directly onto your canvas with charcoal or chalk; all the while keeping the correct proportions of the original subject. Don't waste your valuable artwork time by guessing on proportions and perspective: let Compose It Grids be your guide and do the math for you!

Divide the smaller number of your canvas size by the larger to get the percentage; then choose the closest percentage listed above to get the best proportional match. For example, a 14x18" canvas would have a percentage of around 0.78 (=14 divided by 18), and would best match with the 5.5:7 grid which has a 0.79 percentage. See More

SoHo Urban Artist Linen #133 Unprimed Blanket 15.17 oz, 82.67" x 6 ydSave Up to53%Off listNatural Quality canvas worthy of your finest masterpiece! Are you tired of painting on standard cotton duck canvas but find better fabrics too expensive? SoHo Urban Artist has the answer with their new line of professional quality, unprimed artists' canvas in a wide range of fibers and textures — all at an affordable price! Only the highest quality natural fibers are used to weave the canvas. Because the canvas is raw, you have the opportunity to select the special gesso or primer that you want to use as your base. If you want the canvas to be ultra-smooth, you can sand the gesso in between coats or apply more texture if that is the effect you want. Linen, jute, and hemp are superior fibers that, when properly cared for, will survive for centuries — and so will your art! These premium raw unprimed canvases are available in generous 30-yard rolls, 6-yard folded blankets, and convenient 1-yard samples to make it easy to find your favorite. Find the perfect painting surface with SoHo Urban Artist Professional Unprimed Canvas! Key Features: * Professional quality linen, jute, and hemp * Multiple surface textures offered * Raw canvas ready to prime * Prime to suit your painting needs! Perfect For: * Professional painters of all types * Custom priming and stretching your own canvas * Creating a textured or smooth canvas * Portrait artists and detail painters * Archival art that will last! #42 Linen – 66.9" wide; 12.7 oz. - Slightly heavier than 12 oz cotton but not as bulky. It has a beautiful, tight weave that is perfect for detailed realistic techniques and more abstract applications. For portrait artists, three coats of priming sanded between layers would yield a very pleasing surface. #38 Linen – 66.9" wide; 14.1 oz. - This linen is about 10% heavier than the #42. It has a medium weave and texture and falls into our all-purpose range. You can use this linen for portraiture, but we generally do not recommend it for this purpose. This linen is ideal for all other realistic, representative, and modern expressions. #133 Linen – 82.67" wide; 15.17 oz. - This hearty linen has a robust weave and uniform surface. Perfect for expressive works and abstract pieces. #31 Linen – 90.55" wide; 17.99 oz. - The heaviest linen with a medium texture and weave. It is intended for large-sized works, but you can use it for any size piece. It weighs in at 17.99 oz. or 510 gms, which is heavier than any commercially produced pre-stretched linen canvas product on the market. #24 Jute – 74.8" wide; 24.51 oz. - Jute is a delightful departure from the smoothness associated with hemp and linens as it is delectably coarse, soft, and shiny with a beautiful golden color. The fiber lengths are incredibly long, so the strength of the jute is unrivaled. It has a large, coarse weave and is wonderful for glue-sizing, leaving the natural color of the canvas, or for traditional priming with oil or acrylic-based primers. #25 Hemp – 86.6" wide; 25.4 oz. - Hemp is for any artist looking for a heavyweight, durable fabric that is strong and soft. A robust, tight weave characterizes this fabric. The archival nature of hemp rivals that of the finest linen, but it is economical enough to use on the largest of paintings. See More
