Build Your Own Canvas Stretcher Frame
$110.00

Beginner Level

This class will explore a couple different approaches to building an absolute staple for painters: the canvas stretcher frame. Even though they cost a small fortune to buy in an art supply store, they are actually fairly easy and inexpensive to build. The main variable in their construction is what kind of tools / work space is available for the artist to use?

This class will present approaches for how to build stretcher frames for folks who have little work space and few tools all the way up through folks who have generous work spaces and a decent array of woodworking tools available to them. No matter where you fall on this spectrum, there will be a technique/process shown that will fit your profile.

As a part of this class, students will produce (and take home with them) at least one canvas stretcher frame. Students will also leave with an understanding of both the equipment and materials required for producing stretcher frames on their own in the future.

** Classes are transferable up to 48 hours before class, but not refundable.
