Fabric painting for jack vettriano prints uk mainly in linen and canvas in two , high-quality two cloth should be thick solid, dense fiber . Outside of the centuries , including the box canvas is stretched and pinned with nails . Now the United States will be professional artists canvas nailed to the opposite frame of mind , and with staples staple gun shot fixed canvas.
The advantages of this new approach are:


1, the new law can be stretched side show The Singing Butler prints picture frame , even without the frame , the picture remains incomplete, may exhibit both heavy feeling , if one wants with the frame , the frame can also display some of the inner frame picture, in order to highlight the entire work of the three-dimensional effect . The old stretch method, painting must be accompanied by frame to display.

position occupied , it may have up and down , left and right , the trend in different directions of the central or side. Shape and lines of the

"inner vitality " is by no means everyone can perceive , but for a good observation of people, it is there and can be understood.

This movement of the lines and the body , which is in this direction or in the other direction of the momentum can be enhanced , in the same

composition as the next body to be drawn , the arrangement also has the same tendency with some other Physical or lines. That momentum in this
