The same  top-of-the-line,   professional-quality  linen used for our Blick Premier Belgian Linen Stretched Canvases&nbsp;&mdash;&nbsp;now available in rolls!   We are proud to put the Blick Premier name on this fine grade Belgian linen canvas, boasting all the best qualities for an exceptional painting experience. It is quite simply the ultimate substrate for oil painting.   We start with an extremely smooth, 5.5&nbsp;oz medium texture linen made in Belgium from the inner bark of the flax plant. Picked, pumiced, and woven by hand, these long fibers produce a strong, flexible, slightly stretchy material that has been known to last for centuries. Belgian linen is acknowledged to be the very finest in the world, following a tradition that dates back to the 1400s&nbsp;&mdash;&nbsp;and we would not settle for anything less when it comes to the Blick Premier brand.   This outstanding canvas is then imported to the USA where it is carefully primed by hand with three coats of oil based primer to a 10&nbsp;oz finished weight. Meticulous sanding between the coats prevents peeling, flaking, or cracking.   The combination of  fine-woven,   flax-based  fibers and expertly applied oil primer results in the ideal oil painting surface&nbsp;&mdash;&nbsp;colors seem to melt like butter with extraordinary smoothness and luminosity. This stable, archival ground resists cracking under temperature fluctuations or while  re-stretching.    Blick Premier Belgian Linen Canvas is ideally suited to accept oil paint&nbsp;&mdash;&nbsp;however, it can also be used with egg tempera, casein, and some drawing media.

Considered the ultimate painting surface for oils, Belgian linen is the  highest-quality  substrate available for artists who seek a luxurious painting experience and the best archival longevity. True to its name, Blick Premier Belgian Linen Canvas offers premier quality at an affordable Blick price. 


We begin with 100% pure, 4.5oz medium texture linen that's been prepared, picked, and pumiced by hand in Belgium. Using a special technique perfected by the Old Masters, each canvas is then hand-coated in the USA with three applications of an oil-based, lead-free primer to reach a 10oz primed weight. 


The linen is then  back-stapled  to  kiln-dried ,  high-density ,  North American-grown  pine stretcher bars with an impressive 1-3/8" profile. The frame is constructed with tenon corners for added strength, and eight keys are included for minor tension adjustments over time.  Blanket-fold  corners assure ease of  re-stretching . 


Blick Premier Belgian Linen Canvas is a versatile surface that's ideal for all oil painting techniques.
