Barronarts stocks and uses only the finest
COTTON DUCK CANVAS and PURE BELGIAN LINEN made anywhere. We purchase
only First Quality goods, unlike other sources who often sell mill seconds.
If
you have ever painted on bumpy material filled with runs and imperfections,
you know the importance of quality fabric.
Available in various widths and thicknesses, our canvas and linen can be purchased
in lengths from 1-100 yards at very competitive prices.

In addition, we stretch and prime all of the material that we sell onto our stretchers and panels, offering our customers as many options as possible.
STRETCHING AND PRIMING
Let us provide superior stretching and priming
at prices that will convince you to give it up forever!

Using the canvas or linen of your choice, we will expertly stretch and, if
you desire, prime with either our STANDARD PRIME or our premium PANEL PRIME.
STANDARD PRIME involves a basic double coat of Professional quality Titanium
Dioxide Acrylic Gesso, lightly sanded between coats. It is best when a slight
texture is desired and when cost is a consideration. Multiple coats can be
applied as desired.
Our premium PANEL PRIME is exclusive to barronarts. A custom mixture of acrylic-based
materials creates a highly sandable and ultra-smooth surface. Best results
are obtained on panel, but when used on a canvas surface, superior smoothness
is also obtained compared to standard gesso. Up to 8 coats are applied, each
sanded, and the entire surface is finish-sanded to a beautiful white smoothness.
It costs more, but many of our clients agree that it is well worth it!
