Unwrap the canvas and set it on an easel or flat surface. Since it’s already stretched and primed, you can begin with a light sketch or directly apply thin acrylic or oil layers. Work from light to dark, build up textures gradually, and use appropriate drying times between layers.

Allow paintings to dry fully in a dust-free area. Store canvases upright or flat in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to minimize discoloration or warping. Clean any dust from the surface gently with a soft brush if needed.
