Making your own canvas panels is a great cost-saver when it comes to being a painter. This is how I make mine with my own homemade gesso primer.

Before the invention of oil painting on sailcloth canvas, artists during and before the Renaissance Period commonly painted on solid wooden panels.

These were carefully selected pieces of hardwood, and painstakingly sized with hide glues and primed with gypsum or lead-based primers, in preparation for egg tempera or oil painting.

Today, making your own canvas panels for oil painting (or acrylic) is so easy to do.
