85x49 Artfix L43U Acrylic Primed Mural Roll Canvas #L43U-85x49

Artfix L43U Universal Acrylic Primed Linen

Heavy weight acrylic primed linen canvas. Great for large and small works with a very heavy body, yet has a pleasing medium surface tooth. It has a bright white tone. The "U" in the style name is for universal acrylic primed, which means that it works for virtually all paint types. The unique formulation mimics many attributes of oil-based primers, yet retains the resilience and flexibility characteristic of acrylic priming. Distinct from the typical glossy acrylic primers, this canvas surface has a more matte finish, enhancing its absorbency. This quality ensures superior adhesion for a diverse array of artistic media.

This universal acrylic primed linen is particularly well-suited for oil and acrylic paints, and its absorbent nature makes it an excellent choice for drawing media like oil sticks, pastels, charcoal, and graphite. When mounted on a rigid surface, the universal primed canvas and its smoothish texture even accommodates fragile mediums like egg tempera and caseins with exceptional results.

I'm enough of an artist to draw freely on my imagination. Imagination is more important than knowledge. Knowledge is limited; imagination encircles the world. ♦ Albert Einstein

Celebrated not just for his groundbreaking contributions to physics but also for his insightful reflections on life, Albert Einstein recognized the boundless potential of the human mind. While Einstein's legacy is primarily rooted in the realm of science, he deeply appreciated the intangible, the abstract, and the creative. He believed that while facts and formulas might define the boundaries of our knowledge, it's our imagination that pushes those boundaries further, enabling innovations and discoveries.

We understand this truth intimately. The canvas, the sculpture, or the song - they are not just reflections of what we know, but of what we envision. Imagination is our guiding star, leading us to explore realms beyond the tangible, and in doing so, revealing truths about the world and ourselves. Einstein's words echo the sentiment that while knowledge provides a foundation, it is our imagination that constructs the edifice of our art and insights.
