Customers praised this double-primed, deep 1.5" stretched canvas for "excellent quality" and "great price." Most found it sturdy, taut, and well-constructed with thick canvas and strong bars. Some add extra gesso for oils. A few noted inconsistencies: occasional sagging, canvas flaws, or insufficient priming. Some felt larger sizes need corner gussets and keys for re-tightening.
- Beautifully made, strong and durable
- My go-to surface for all my landscapes. Always top notch quality
- The canvasses are great, and I am totally satisfied with the weight of the canvas
I love working on large canvas and Opus provides me with excellent quality that is affordable to me. Most appreciated.
It's a good product. Light weight, taut, requires only one or two additional gesso layers and is adequately reinforced for good rigidity.
Awesome quality for Acrylic painting!! Display color well.
Staff is always helpful when I load up on larger size canvases. I usually stretch my own but the quality is very good at opus, Langley.
I have been using these Opus canvases (about 300) for many years and love them! I usually buy the larger ones and paint directly onto the pre-gessoed surface which is perfect for Acrylic paint. The frames are never warped and the tension correct. Great value too!
Great size for my new series. Can't wait to paint it!
Fantastic value! Great quality
Great product, great price.
Beautifully made , strong and durable
Love the canvases! I had an issue with shipping and the Opus crew worked with me on the phone until it got sorted.
They’re great
All good
I moved to Edmonton from Vancouver and can’t find the high quality products and art supplies here so I ordered and had everything shipped from Opus.
It’s exactly what I wanted at a great price low shipping costs and not a cent goes to the USA. Win win win!
Excellent quality and size. Love the deep edges.
I ordered these canvasses, hoping they would be a decent quality for the price I was paying. The cost per canvas was lower than any other Canadian company I checked, so I was wondering how the quality would compare to ones I was buying locally. I am very happy to report that the canvasses are great, and I am totally satisfied with the weight of the canvas itself, the priming is nice and even, and the stretcher bars nice and sturdy. I have now placed a second order as I enjoyed working on this surface.
I am really happy with Opus pre stretched canvas. Good consistency and a good price. I like using the deep option as many of my clients prefer not to frame them. I often pull the painting colours around the sides. It gives the paintings a nice affect
I really enjoy painting on your exhibition canvasses. I am waiting for the acrylic tutorial near end of January to try the airbrush medium.
Good quality and it arrived here in a timely manner despite a nation wide postal strike. Thanks opus!
These are excellent and the price beats the competition handily. I like to support a locally owned business as well.
As per usual, OPUS offers fabulous products.
Easy to prepare with gesso and ready-made for a successful result.
This is a go-to product for me.
Thank you OPUS for exceptional products and exceptional service!
They are all great , arrived in a timely manner, packaged beautifully and no damage , I will order more and recommend people to use opus for their art supplies, thank you to the warehouse opus time
Reliable product
Opus canvases have never disappointed - they're sturdy and the canvas is nice and thick. Feels stable while painting. Usually I sand them and add a few extra coats of gesso for smoothness. Highly recommend, have been buying from Opus for 2 years. Michael's canvases will make you cringe once you've experienced one of these bad boys.
My go-to surface for all my landscapes. Always top notch quality, with a couple extra layers of gesso for oils, it’s perfect!
I have used the Opus Exhibition Pre stretched canvas’s in the past and am satisfied with how they hold up.
Great canvas good price .
