Info
Artfix CL40S Clear Glue Sized Linen is a 540gsm coarse-toothed, unprimed linen with a tight weave that can be used with a variety of painting mediums including oil, water-mixable oil, acrylic, and acrylic gouache. This linen is extremely durable, making it perfect for murals and large-scale artwork where a gentle texture is desired. It has been pre-sized and treated with a single glue layer for universal use. The artist can finish the linen by adding their own choice of primer to the surface: acrylic primer or gesso, clear acrylic medium, homemade genuine gesso, or oil primer.
Linen by nature is stronger and more durable than cotton and is proven to stand the test of time. Although more affordable and the most popular today, cotton canvas is not as strong and deteriorates faster than linen.
Artfix Linen has been handcrafted for over 30 years in Provence, France by the Narozni family. The warm, dry climate is ideal for slow, even drying of primed canvas surfaces. Artfix Linen has superb archival characteristics: each canvas is guaranteed not to peel, crack or flake, and will not fluctuate or lose stability due to changes in humidity and temperature.
Artfix linens are made from a strong, tightly woven fabric that is double-sized during production to protect the material from the adverse effects of oil primers and oil paints.
