In addition to regular canvasses, Talens offers a complete range of 3D canvasses. The 4 cm thick sides of the 3D canvas can be painted as well, which adds an extra dimension to the painting. This stretched canvas is made of 100% cotton, weighs 300 grams per m² and offers a fine texture of 21.5 x 19 threads per cm². The laths of this canvas are 4 x 4 cm thick. To support its frame structure, this canvas has been equipped with two extra laths that form a cross.
Why cotton?
Cotton is a soft material that is often used with acrylic paint. Cotton canvasses are versatile and accessible, which makes them perfect for various painting techniques.
