For the man that puts it DOWN! Express your unique bond and make one-of-a-kind art with this boldly intriguing kit.

What's left is a striking painting that leaves a tangible piece of your bond to hang and celebrate for years to come. Once completed, the canvas can be taken to your local art store to be stretched and framed. Canvas is not pre-stretched, however, the material will absorb the paint, so that when the canvas is stretched in order to be framed, your artwork will not be distorted. There is a non-absorbent backing on the canvas, which will prevent paint from going all the way through.
