Will this canvas work for a watercolor project?

The surface is prepared for acrylic or oil. I did not order watercolor canvas.

I would not advise it to be painted on even though I have used for some light watercolor and a few acrylic paintings. Mostly I use it for large pen & ink work. If your carefull and don't scrub your brush on it or don't get it very wet... it works.... Hope this helps. ;-)

I don't know because I haven't tried the canvas? So far this one has served the purpose very well. Haven't had a problem.

I don't think it will. Get one that has a number of small wells on the perimeter and larger wells in the center for mixing. You can rehydrate watercolors without a problem if they dry out between sessions.

maybe, but if you are planning to stick the paper to a canvas, it will not stick or it barely sticks.

Yes!!!! any kind I am sure will work... You just have to be careful the project is completely dry... And you dont want to work the paint to much. My kids kept re painting the same area and the clay started to absorb the liquid again.

It is not as thick as the regular painting canvas a person would purchase at a craft store, but I did use it to paint on. I used plain acrylic paint mixed with a fabric medium. I'm currently using it as a rug. I heard of others using regular wall paint and hanging them as curtains. If you want high quality, this probably is not your best option. However, for the price, I would try it. Worse case scenario would be to use it as a drop cloth or start a different project:)

I've really only used it with watercolor paper. You should check videos from jennifermcgureink.com That is where you will find some good answers.

I wouldn't recommend it. I would think sun and rain would damage the canvas and fade the colors. One thing for sure is that I love this picture, it looks so much better in person.

I would only say, proceed at your own risk. This printer is primarily made for paper and photographic paper. There are larger printer/plotters from Epson and other brands that are rated for printing on canvas and other substrates...and, of course, they are much more expensive. If this is a rare, one- or two-off project, you may do better to find a local or online vendor that specializes in printing on fabric or canvas - there are hundreds of them listed on the web. That way you don't risk ruining your own printer. If you intend on printing on fabric routinely, you may want to invest or lease a much larger printer/plotter. But my recommendation would be to outsource it to a qualified vendor first who has the proper equipment.

Yes, you are correct. I am still using this for painting 30 x 40 canvas by leaning the canvas on the top shelf and using the pencil drawer to hold the canvas on the bottom. This fits my space well so is working for me, but I am not painting on paper.

Hi Jerry, I'm doing the same. Did these work for your canvas? Thanks in advance for your reply! :)

Not too well. Rough or nubby fabrics, if they are not cotton or linen, don't let the ink or dye sink in thoroughly. If they are cotton or linen, sponging on with fabric paint will work nicely. What the canvas is made of will determine the absorbency.

I don't think I would try it on canvas. I think it would spot or stain your bag. Hope this helps

I have not personally attempted image tranfer onto canvas, but I do use this for all my wood transfers. I dont see why this same stuff wouldnt work. Hope I was semi helpful.

I would say from my experience that you would make a tremendous mess, I would recommend putting visqueen plastic underneath if you are splattering paint on the canvas for your art project and want to protect the floor underneath. This is a light duty cloth and a whole bucket of paint (quart or gallon) would likely be a disaster. If the canvas is not necessary to your art project I would forego it and just use visqueen, but watch out because it will be slippery after it has paint on it.

It really used for water profing only. I used it on canvas. I don't think it will work on vyinl
