We all know and probably even use canvas in
our lives,like converse canvas shoes some
of us daily. Painters rely on it as the medium to which they apply their
paints, as they have for centuries. Sailors still prefer canvas as the material
of choice for their sails, which must catch the wind, resist the elements, and
be strong enough to withstand the other pressures of the ocean. And common
people wear canvas on their feet or on their bodies. We have canvas chairs,
sleeping cots, covers, and many other objects for which no better material may
exist. Cotton canvas fabric is a woven material, one that is made in a pattern
where the weft thread runs over one warp thread and under another warp thread.
This one over, one under weave is a distinguishing feature of canvas that gives
it its distinct look as well as strength. The fact that canvas is relatively
easy to work with and to care for accounts for its massive popularity and use
in so many different things, from giant sails that use canvas fabric by the
yard, to the ubiquitous canvas grocery bags people are adopting in an effort to
be more eco-friendly.
Why do artists working with paint still prefer to use
canvas in their creations as opposed to different, newer materials? It
has to do with the ability of canvas to take on and keep colors clearly where
in other materials, colors may tend to bleed or fade. Also, because
canvas is pretty tough as far as fabrics go (one of the toughest we have, and
certainly the strongest one that sees common use), it can be stretched taut
over a wooden frame to make an excellent painting surface. Tags
