Surface

Using only the highest quality primers & Gesso’s from Lascaux we can prepare a wide variety of specialist artists surfaces, from hand priming and tinted gesso finishes, to the traditional application of Rabbit Skin Glue on to linen or canvas. Where size is critical, we hand prepare extra large canvas up to 4.2m in width. We supply high quality linens from Claessens in Belgium as well as technical canvases (polyesters), cotton duck and projection materials from Fredrix and Harkness accordingly.
