Art Alternatives Johanna Basford Secret Garden Coloring Canvas-Peacock

When I tell you that I was more than over Joy for receiving this as a Christmas gift it would be an understatement I receive something similar to it about two years ago and have been looking for this particular way of painting. And since finishing that prior canvas I haven't been able to find anything out so when my mom gave it to me every gift I was just I mean adult coloring is something that I love to do as you can see I already started coloring and it is such a pleasure it's so relaxing and therapeutic. It is on the pricey side but I will definitely be purchasing one in the near future it would be great to get a discount code or sample sent in the mail either way if you purchased this item you will not be disappointed

I LOVED working with this canvas, the construction and materials they used are top-shelf. The wood is not particle board, it is solid, real wood. They join the corners using a tounge and groove method and it is completely flat and level. The canvas is secured with A LOT of stapes, it does not move in the slightest. Behind the canvas itself is a piece of thick, hard cardboard which prevents any poking through by sharp pen or pencil tips. The print on this one is not too complicated and gives a lot of white space for you to use your imagination. I used Chameleon Pens on my canvas if you're curious.

I love the coloring books and the artists editions of the books and now the canvases with pictures from the books. I loved this bird one. I didn't color the white background until I finished everything else. It looked like it needed something more so I used light blue for the background just in-side the wreath holding the birds. It looks so much better with the background color. If you know the color you want for the background maybe you should do it first. I've used markers of all kinds and gel pens. Some marker points have been worn down so now I make sure not to press too hard.

I bought it to color it with my markers but the lines are pretty close together and the small tips get ruined by the bumps I mean it's a sturdy actual canvas this paper made for paints. I might attempt it one day to paint it but I don't know when. But it is made with great quality though but wasn't looking when I was buying.

I love all of Johanna Basford coloring books, calendars etc. and her online community so do not take this wrong. I thought this would be great and nice to be able to hang it up when finished. It comes ready to color and hang as it is attached to a frame. It is a bit awkward trying to color not being flat on the table. The canvas is "bumpy" so markers kind of look like pixels once colored. NOT a fan. I will sadly not purchase any more of these. I am sure some of her more experienced followers will figure out a great way to color on this medium but I am not one of them. I am hoping for some simply large posters of her pictures and frame them myself. I will stick with her books and calendars.

I like these canvases very much. I enjoy the texture as a different experience to the book (which I also liked). They say to use alcohol markers, but I used both water color and alcohol markers and they both worked very well. I assume you could use any art medium you wanted to try. I like the way the canvases are gessoed, and attached securely to the frame so there is no sagging.

I purchased other nature prints of hers from a local craft store, so I knew what the canvas style was going to look like, and I was very pleased when this one came as expected. It was so much fun to color and let my imagination run wild, knowing I was doing this for my son's nursery. It's easy to color on, the colors don't bleed, and the wooden frame around the print is of good, solid material. Smells nice, too!

I love coloring on canvas and when I found out that these were available I jumped to buy a few! Nicely made and of course the designs are outstanding! I had been using a firm to make custom prints on canvas but these are much nicer and less expensive - quality is the same as the canvas company too!The key to coloring using canvas is using the correct, lightfast, markers. I always use the Faber Castell Pitt Artist Pens as they are colorfast and blend great on canvas.

Le encantó a mi mamá. El acabado es rugoso por lo que se requerirá un buen coloreado si se usan lápices.

As advertised.

These are brilliant to do I have bought a few now. I find them very relaxing to do if you have never true these the are excellent. They take me away from the day to day drudge and you have a lovely canvassing at the end to keep or to give away as a present. Johanna Basford colouring books are good to I buy them for gifts and excellent for xmas stocking fillers.

Muy buen tamaño excelente producto para explotar tu creatividad

I love colouring and painting but cannot draw at all and these colouring canvases are awesome. Wish more people would make them, especially with regular pictures. Using paint pens on these, wonderful results.
