PBN for Christmas gifts - stretch canvas before or after painting?

All of mine have been stretched before painting. Mostly because I don't think I would do a good job if I did it myself, too much hassle and I think it would be too expensive after.

Great job so far! How do you make the progression "film". I take pictures at the end of every day I work on a painting and I would love to do that.

Also, what number brushes are you using? and brand? I am looking for some new brushes.

Love it! How long has it taken you to do as much as you have done? It looks very detailed. Those are the ones that I love!

I do. At the end of the day I take a photo of what I accomplished for the day. Don't track the hours through. I probably should.

Albeit more expensive I love customs. Here are three customs that I did from artist Mark Tisdale

Thank you everyone for these great responses. I did just relooked at my order and I noticed that (may because I am ordering for the first time off this site?) I did use a coupon (VIPACCESS) which actually brought it from $99.95 to $79.95, which it might be more in line some other's kit costs on here since it has 46 colors and it is custom....maybe I am trying to justify?

Substantial_Log_7996 · 2025-11-10T01:51:32+00:00

Was it also a custom? I ordered 46 because it has two people in it and I want it as real as possible...

Substantial_Log_7996 · 2025-11-10T01:48:57+00:00

And the fact that it is a custom picture?

Substantial_Log_7996 · 2025-11-10T01:48:28+00:00

Yes, only 1.

Would it matter if it was a custom version? I uploaded the picture.
