Phoenix Triangular Stretched Canvas for Oils and Acrylics
The shape of the canvas becomes part of the painting. The Phoenix Artist triangular canvas is stretched over a pine frame in the shape of an equilateral triangle. Choose it when you want to move beyond the rectangle — for geometric compositions, mountains, trees or a series of shaped paintings on one wall.

How to work with it
On a triangle, the composition draws the eye towards the point, so decide in advance which point will face upwards. You can paint the staple-free sides and hang the canvas without a frame. Several triangles in different sizes make an interesting arrangement on the wall. Hang the triangle with its point facing up or down: the same shape can suggest a mountain or a falling form. For geometric abstraction, try sharp edges and flat blocks of colour; for a landscape, use gradual transitions from a dark base to a light point.
