When you have a piece of artwork on canvas, you will need to have it stretched onto wooden stretcher bars before framing. This is another one of our specialties. Not all canvas stretches the same! Some canvases need some extra stretching for them to remain taught. Otherwise, after a short time, the canvas relaxes and becomes wavy. There is actually an art to stretching canvas. What we do:
- Use our many years of experience to properly stretch your artwork.
- Custom cut to fit any canvas
- Support the stretcher bars so they do not bow when pulled by the canvas
- Join the stretcher bars the same as a frame with very strong glue and V-nails (underpinning)
- Gallery Wrap (staples are on the back, not side) canvas on wider stretcher bars when not being framed or when using a "floater" frame
- Giclee's, Oils, Acrylics, Mixed Media, and much more.....
