This Canadian-made canvas is 100% pure cotton stretched on 1½″ deep basswood stretcher bars. It features 7 oz (237 gsm) canvas, primed to a finished weight of 10 oz (328-385 gsm). Shrink wrapping ensures a clean canvas for your next creation.

Pretty good quality

I just put two more additional coats of gesso to be sure. Canvas is well supported by strong bars.

Solid ,Reliable Surface to paint upon

I have been happily painting plien air three of these canvases with oil paint. All are 30” by 36” . I was painting by the bay at Burgoyne Salt Spring contending with irrational winds. I was on the cliffs of Helliwell ignoring the passers by while I delighted in forms and shapes of the most beautiful familiar landscape before me. Then another coastline and mountains. It is my Gallery that wanted the deep canvas as then you need not frame it as it is so good looking and the customer can choose their own frame.

A good, but not quite great product.

These pre-stretched canvases are good value, well made, and nice to work on. When working with oils, it's not a bad idea to add a couple more coats of gesso. These would be a great product if the stretchers had keys, so that they could be re-tightened as the canvas ages. As it is, if the canvas goes limp, there is nothing you can do about it, which is very disappointing.

Consistent quality

I have been using Opus Exhibition canvasses for years, and find both the canvas surface and stretchers to be of consistently high quality.
