The Gold Standard for Professional Artists
Claessens Oil Primed Rough Texture and Heavy Weave Linen Rolls are meticulously crafted from premium Belgian flax, offering a robust and textured surface ideal for artists seeking a pronounced canvas tooth. A pronounced rough weave, providing a substantial tooth that grips paint effectively ideal for impasto Techniques, expressive brushwork, large-scale paintings and even murals and decorative art.These linens we offer are Single (OP) oil-primed using traditional methods, providing a responsive surface that enhances the luminosity and depth of oil paints.
Claessens Linen Rolls provide artists with optimal professional quality in painting surfaces and craftsmanship. Each specific primed linen type passed through its own set of manufacturing steps and quality control, resulting in premium painting surfaces Claessens is renowned for. After receiving the raw linens, quality control carefully inspects the entire surface for weaving faults. Abnormally thick threads are scrupulously removed. Next, two layers of synthetic adhesive are applied. Each layer is dried on the canvas in a warm-air oven.
For oil primed canvases, zinc white is used as the first coat, bound with linseed oil; carefully applied to the glued linen with trowel-like knives. Then the canvas is sanded and a layer with a titanium white base is applied in the same fashion, then placed in a drying room for 3 days to air dry naturally. Double primed canvases undergo the same process again, as do additional primings. After the final coating is applied, the canvas is moved back to the drying room for 10 days.
