Canvas Art PosterMaterials Needed:
24" x 36" print
Canvases
Paint and Brush
Spray Bottle
Elmers Craft Bond (Spray adhesive)
Delta Craft Paint & Texture Builder (optional)

INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Select your favorite 24 x 36 print. Choose canvases that will fit your 24 x 36 print. For our project we used two 12 x 12 canvases and three 24 x 8 canvases.

2. Paint sides of canvases (use a paint color that goes with the print). Let paint dry.

3. Cut print to fit each canvas.

4. Spray warm water on the back of each canvas and let dry. This process will tighten the canvases and create the best adhesive surface for your print. (Note: Skipping this step may cause ripples between your print and the canvas.)

5. Apply “Elmers Craft Bond” or another spray adhesive to the back of the print and smooth onto dry canvas front. Let Dry.

6. Use “Delta Craft Paint” and mix with “Texture Builder” to paint where you want a “lifted” textured look.

Don’t forget to purchase hardware to hang your finished art.
