In the past I have ordered the most beautiful linen throught the ASOPA. It has been available in single or double oil primed, and in several different weaves. Call or email Jennifer at ASOPA for current info. A roll lasts me for several years.

I am posting a detail of one of a pair of double portraits, as I hope that the characteristeics and qualities of this linen will show up in the image. (Oddly I seem to use pastel like oil, and oil like pastel. It is a constant battle in the desire to use more paint, as Karin says!). Somehow I always seem to get sidetracked with the beauty of the surface itself. So no more apologies.
