Have you ever wanted to paint on a canvas of your very own making? Well, if the answer is yes, your time has come. Linda Wandt will show you how to stretch a canvas to any size your heart desires. In this highly demanded demo Linda will show you how to properly assemble stretcher bars and stretch canvas over them to make a beautiful canvas.
