  Has anyone on this list tried their canvas products? Namely the 
  cotton 580 and the poly/cotton 575? Does anyone know where to get it? 
  Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

Tim, Media Street has 2 canvas sheets, glossy and matte. I believe they are
actual canvas. The glossy has deep blacks, and printed very nice. Sort of
looked like a varnished oil painting. It has been a couple years since I
used it, as I don't much care for canvas, but it did print very nice.

Tim, 
I just received a sample of a canvas (for inkjet) from Brightcube (photoinkjet.com).  It is really smooth and tests acid free with my ph pen.  I mention this because the canvas is "real" canvas and not a paper that has a canvas texture.  The canvas is coated with an inkjet receptive coating and is much smoother than any pre-coated canvas I have seen before.  Surprisingly smooth! Yet the canvas "texture" is there but subtle.  

They also have a premium canvas called "Arno."  

I have not tested it yet with inksets, but think it is a very nice product to consider.    It is also very "flat" so it could be mounted like a paper too and you could promote your prints as being made on "real canvas."  

I am going to use my sample with my PiezoColor inks and may post results later. 

Steadman

  Hello All,

  I am going to turn some of my images into digital watercolor and want 
  to print to a canvas or linen inkjet paper. Has anyone used a canvas 
  or linen paper in this manner or such a paper they liked as a 
  straight print? My site is www.portraitsofnature.net, there you can 
  see some of the images I'm talking about turning into watercolors. 
  Your help would be most appreciated. Thank you.

  Regards

  Tim

Thank you steadman. I would be real interested in how it turns out. I 
like the swatches of the 2 Hahnemuhle canvas' that I received from 
Digital Art Supplies. They are canvas but not a coarse canvas and for 
my digital art work they should be nice. It would give them that 
painterly look, I think. Please let me know how you make out. Thank 
you.

Regards,

Tim
