EINE - White Walls Gallery SF - March 12th, by des77 on Mar 15, 2011 13:49:49 GMT 1, Im surprised with the amount of artists that use those cheap pre stretched canvas's. Not saying Eine has here, but imo its lazy not doing your own.

US based I guess
I only came on this site to learn more about banksy and have, since then, gotten into two more artists and am expanding even more.
I hate this hobby

I've had the same reaction when I first saw his works!
Now I love 'em!

I asked WW about the available works but had no reply.
Asked Eine about a commission and he's not doin any commision now.
I hate this hobby! ;D

Can't speak for Eine obv, but of the 50+ artists in my missus' studio complex only one makes their own canvases (and that one bases her work on pre-industrial revolution skillset, ie making all her own paint etc.) Stretching, fixing, and priming canvai is not what you want to spend your time doing if you're an artist, you wanna paint.
Each to there own I guess. I just feel if an artist is spending a week on a painting, 100's of hours on a stencil or expects you to pay 1k plus for a piece of art ..its not too much to spend 30 mins making a canvas

Ben's suit was awesome - have there been pictures of it?
The SF font looks great.
He is a great guy. Right now he is painting the LA MOCA.
Great show - the canvases can and will be re-stretched.

If you want a canvas tight and to stay so, you need to prime it yourself. The pre made ones are primed and dried canvas, stretched round a frame which is why they nearly always get loose in the 1st few years.
If you were a chief, would you buy your menu pre made from a supermarket because it was easier ?

Very True Winter 95% sold and a lot of renewed interest in the US/UK and beyond.
Ben deserves a break in LA but I think he'll get little rest.
;D
