Brushes Canvas
Hi all i want to start designing canvas art i'm pretty good at drawing i would like to do it as a hobby?

Well at least to start off with but what are the formats involved in doing this as if you get good at it can you sell your art any help would be much appreciated.

ie how much does canvas cost and how do you get drawing or patterns on the canvas.
I have heard of stencils being used by placing the stencil over the canvas and dabbing over it with a paint brush...

any help much grateful

You can always sell art when you think you are professionally ready. You can make your own site and advertise on art forums, or you can use Ebay. DeviantART.com is a great place to start showcasing your work. Otherwise, use porfolio sites like www.carbonmade.com

If you are painting, always use paintbrushes that are made with animal fur/hair, not the plastic ones!

Here is a Yahoo! Answers answer for price of canvas and gesso:

Hope this helps!
