Stretching Canvases and Final Preparations
In this installment, we join Richard in his studio as he demonstrates how to properly stretch both a blank canvas and one with a finished painting on it. He explains the advantages of painting on a canvas taped to a board, and illustrates the ease with which it may be stretched afterwards. He also shows how he prepares the back of a canvas to ensure a long life for the painting. Lastly, as a special treat, he shares a few paintings from his personal collection!
