Caitlin Winner on Instagram: "Three reasons and a pro tip: 1. Painting unstretched gives me compositional flexibility. I can change the final dimensions of the painting as I work. It’s not uncommon that I add on to the bottom or crop in from the sides. I usually cut the canvas with a few inches of buffer on all sides to allow for these changes. 2. It’s easier for me to maneuver large unstretched canvas on my own compared to the same size over stretcher bars. I use thumbtacks to move the canvas up or down on the wall so that the section I am painting on is at chest height. 3. Unstretched canvas takes up less room than stretched paintings, this can make for easier storage and cheaper shipping. A pro tip that I got from another painter: you can ship larger work rolled inside nested sono Unstretched Canvas, Oil Painting Techniques, I Wait, Stretched Painting, Pro Tip, I Can Change, In Construction, On My Own, Painting Class

Painted on unstretched canvas, this one-of-a-kind, original oil painting pictures a serene setting — thick, thoughtful brushstrokes, a muted palette, and pastoral imagery allow this painting to exude a certain kind of artful magic.The unstretched canvas format can be framed in two different ways: stretch the canvas onto wooden stretchers and hang as is or place into a floater frame, or use a cut-to-size matboard with a standard frame (the same way you would with art on paper).
