Stretch a canvas. Make a frame.
Demonstration and workshop.
Morning or afternoon sessions.
Sunday 12 July
with Jim Moody
A HAS members only event.
Have a go at stretching your own canvas and watch a demonstration of how to make your own contemporary gap frames, in this 3 hour session. Our professional HAS tutor will explain and demonstrate every step of stretching your own canvas and making a professionally finished gap frame for stretched canvas or boards.
All aspects of the process will be covered including a demonstration of stretching, cutting and joinery for making frames, necessary tools, finishing methods, and a list of suppliers. This practical session will give you the skills and information to save a fortune making your own frames and to explore the creative possibilities of stretching your own canvas.
Participants can choose to stretch a 20” x 30” canvas to take home.
Payment options are:
$20 for the demo only
$70 for demo and make your own stretched canvas*.
*You may be handy already, or at no additional charge, you can bring along someone to stretch your canvas for you. Individual help and guidance will be supplied.
