not used yet but impressed with quality of build and tightness of canvas.
looking forward to using them
I was looking for a canvas that unleashedmy creative juices and had the bonus of coming with a subtle floating frame. ACF have got it bang on. My art will provide a horizontal series of artworks, leading the eye to an end wall. A great partnership between artist and canvas.
Love these canvasses so much. Quality, weight, tension is excellent! Highly recommend them!
I am so pleased there is a product that is SO good but affordable for emerging artist ; It is so lovely to treat your work to the best frame!
I wasn’t quite sure what to expect from these canvases but they seemed good value so worth a try. I needn’t have worried. The surface feels so robust and with a subtle texture which I found suited my style and was lovely to use. Likewise, the frame looks great and was easy to detach/attach with 4 screws.
I always buy these Canvases, they are so perfectly straight for framing and just the best quality to create on 😊
Wow! I was totally blown away by the quality of the ACF canvas and floating frame. The canvas has a beautiful finish that’s a joy to paint on and screams quality. Easy to remove from the frame for painting ( 4 screws) so no risk of paint overspill causing an issue. Maybe it’s psychological but I felt the improved quality of the ACF canvas over my usual ones made my painting ability’s improve? I was certainly pleased with the results.
Price wise they are incredibly good value as I’ve priced canvases and floating frames separately before.
Great service tops it off for me… I’ve already bought more and will continue to do so. Photos are 20” x 20” deep frame.
Thanks ACF.
I thought a canvas was a canvas was a canvas. So often shopped based on price or convenience. And that was why I placed my first ACF order. But it's the quality of the canvas that will be reason #1 for my repeat orders.
Love working on acf canvases. I have worked on huge ones and tiny ones and finally started to use the oak framed sets.
The canvas is excellent. But the best part about the sets is the speed of framing. No fuss. Perfect fit
I love the raw wood look but have experimented with staining it to. Very easy.
Recommended to all my artist friends.
This is my first order with ACF. I’d read so many good reviews and I needed to buy something special as this is for a commission. Cant believe how quickly they arrived, first of all. Amazing. But the quality is top notch! Tight as a drum, corners bevelled to perfection. Can’t wait to start on these babies. I’ll post the finished results (3 x 16” x 16”) (as soon as they’ve been received by my client) on my Insta account @SarahParryJonesArt
In the meantime, here are a few pics and video, including a drum roll 🥁 🖼️
ACF did not copy old cotton canvases. We started again. We built a new strainer. We built new PET surfaces. Together, they give you a canvas that stays tight, flat and ready to sell.

Master Realism in Oils — The Classical Underpainting Way
ACF canvases stay tight and flat, so your paintings keep their shape on the wall.
Zulfi found our 40mm canvas is truly a game changer. He loved the solid,
premium feel -like tapping on a drum in the best way. That depth and
quality really stood out to him.
Louise found that painting on our canvas made details and blending a breeze.
She compared it side-by-side and loved how easy it was to get fine
details and smooth blends. Plus, when it came to scanning for prints,
our canvas gave her a clean, high-res result without the extra texture
noise. It just made her job a lot easier.
Nancy loves the super fine texture of our canvases. Nancy explains how
easy it is to start painting right away without heavy prep - just a bit
of gesso and she's ready to go. Plus, she's a big fan of the square
formats and larger sizes for her work. It's all about that flexible,
paint-ready surface that makes her creative process a breeze
Rentia absolutely loves how versatile our canvases are. From oils and pastels to charcoal and acrylic inks, she’s found the surface makes it easy to experiment with any medium. There's no need to prep because the quality is so high, and she appreciates how quickly the underlayers dry. In her words, everything just works, and that gives her the confidence to get creative.
Ewald switched to our canvases after being disappointed by sagging cotton duck, and he was admittedly skeptical at first. But after the first painting, he fell in love with how perfectly it suits his detailed style. Now he has bought around forty of our canvases, each one impressing him more than the last. It's fantastic to see that kind of enthusiasm!
Theresa shared how she fell in love with our canvases right from the start. Her first batch sold out quickly at a local gallery because everyone loved the framing and the quality. She was thrilled to reorder and discovered that there’s no sagging or worries at all. For her, it was like accidentally finding the perfect product.
PET is a high-performance polyester.
It doesn’t sag like cotton.
It doesn’t rot or go brittle like linen.
