Awhile back I inadvertently ordered the wrong stuff. I had meant to order a roll of unprimed/raw #12 cotton canvas but what I ended up with was a roll of light weight preprimed material that was barely canvas, similar in heft or consistency to what was called oil cloth like Grandma would buy in town from a roll at Woolworth's or Kresge's.
As art supplies, this stuff is not really suitable for stretching -and after trying other things I concluded that it just wouldn't do for much of anything I had in mind -except it would work for a drawing series -and so here are charcoal renderings with pencil & other drawing media + wash(es) on unstretched preprimed material. Each piece is approx 24x 30 inches. Scroll down.
