poorest quality canvasses, by asabrush on Apr 3, 2008 11:35:55 GMT 1, was visiting a friend the other day to drool over his collection(I didn't actually dribble on any art!) We were both agreed on how poor d*faces canvases were put together,this was my first time seeing them in the flesh and although I loved them was most disappointed at how poor the stapling was and how "un-stretched" they were.
Anyone know of poorer canvasses?

Saying that I've seen a lot of ropey Andy Warhol stuff!

While Angel41 should sort out something that is at least hangable, or simply send unstretched, Dface's canvases go for big bucks these days. I would certainly expect all those coming from primaries to be of a very high standard these days, considerring the prices you guys all pay for them!

poorest quality canvasses, by seidbereit on Apr 3, 2008 20:49:00 GMT 1, Has anyone got a photo of an Angel41 canvas? Wouldn't mind seeing what's been mentioned above as I often considered bidding on his stuff.
Just to change the mood of the thread though as it seems to be a bit of a downer (although I suppose that's how it's intended to be) the best quality canvas I've received so far was from dirquo. Hands down. Even if he'd left it blank I still think I'd have hung it up

Ok from the back they are not as pretty as some of the shop bought ones or say the ones Blek uses, but who cares what it looks like from the back!
Oh and he likes to stetch them himself as he is a fussy bugger.

One of them I even have to have the wood replaced as it's twisting and fucking up the canvas...
