I was recently contacted by some people who have a really tall wall in their house that needs a really tall painting. They’re commissioning a 6-foot-tall, 4-foot-wide painting of a fall tree. I won’t say any more about the plan for the painting (you’ll see that when it’s done.)
This will be one of the largest paintings I’ve ever done, which is exciting. For a painting this large, I have to build the underlying frame and stretch the canvas myself. Building large canvases is an art in itself, so I thought it would be cool to share that process with you.
I made this video explaining how I stretch a canvas:
