A tea towel can be used to cover the surface entirely.Įverything in this world has content and shape. You should be very careful not to burn the canvas.
Some people iron canvases before painting, some of them after. They wipe brushes, put the lids back to avoid drying out and iron their canvas to get rid of creases and wrinkles from fabric. And all good artists know that taking care of their supplies is very important. Imagine that you have an interview at a prestigious company and you didn’t have time to iron your shirt.
