Artwork on canvas has traditionally been oil or acrylic paintings, but today includes many mediums such as photographs, giclee
prints and serigraphs.

Artwork on canvas is often created and purchased as a rolled item, and then requires to be stretched over canvas stretcher bars
before being displayed. Wooden frames are made from stretcher bars to measure the correct size for each piece of artwork, and
then the artwork is stretched and attached around the wooden frame.

Once stretched, the canvas can be displayed as a completed product, or can be framed and displayed with or with out glass.
