Artfix French Linen

The Sydney Art Store are proud to sell the Artfix range of primed linens and polyester rolls from Provence. Artfix are specialists in producing fine surfaces often with up to four coats of primer for the linens, and up to six for the polyesters, all applied by hand. Polyester is a more modern fabric now widely used to provide a super-fine tooth for more detailed work. In fact, due to it's lack of hygroscopic, or water absorbent qualities, polyester is suited to the more tropical climate of northern Australia. The climate of southern France however is ideal for the slow and stable drying of primed surfaces, which allows for uniform breathability to reduce paint film stress.
