Do You Stretch a Canvas before or after Painting?

Although both methods have pros and cons, ultimately, it comes down to personal preference. We suggest stretching the canvas before painting. It gives the artist more control over the tension of the fabric and can help prevent buckling or cracking once the paint is applied. 

It can also be easier to achieve a tight surface without any wrinkles. Pre-primed canvas doesn’t need as much stretching as an unprimed canvas. 

But, extending a canvas before painting also limits the size of the painting surface and can be more time-consuming. Stretch it until it’s stiff or taut. Make sure there are no ripples on the canvas itself. 

Painting on an upstretched canvas gives the artist more flexibility in size and allows for mid-painting impromptu changes. It can also be quicker and less messy than stretching the canvas beforehand. Whether stretching a canvas before or after the painting is a decision every artist must make for themselves.   

How Do You Attach a Canvas Prints to a Wood Frame?

Using a few tools, you can easily mount a canvas painting to a wood frame. Here is the list of the equipment:

  • Four boards  
  • A miter box or miter saw (optional) ·        
  • brad nailer or hammer 
  • Wood glue ·        
  • Clamps 

Steps to follow:

Step 01. Measure the width of the frameand mark where to make the cuts.

Step 02. Cut the wood into small pieces with a miter box.

Step 03. Stain or paint the wood or leave it natural if you like.

Step 04. Lay the canvas flat on a surface and center the frame on top of it.

Step 05. Put wood glue on the frame and attach the wood.
Step 06. Clamp the wood in place until the

glue dries for a strong connection.

Step 07. Secure the wood to the frame with small nails or brads with a hammer or brad nailer. Start in the middle and work your way out.

Step 08. Be sure to pull the canvas taut as you staple, so there are no wrinkles or sagging areas. Use as many or as few nails as you like.

Step 09. Repeat this on all sides. Make sure that the staples are evenly spaced and flush with the frame. But you can flush the wood with the front if you like that look.

Step 10. Add hanging hardware on the back or leave it off if you just want to lean the canvas.
