Since canvas is strong, portable, and reasonably priced, it makes a great surface for acrylic and oil paintings. When covered in gesso, it becomes archival as well. Paintings can be sealed with a long-lasting varnish to prevent fading, dust, and other damage. Technically, you are not required to varnish any of your paintings, but doing so is a good idea if you plan to give or sell the piece. However there are various ways to preserve your paintings
