Built up layer by layer
Acrylic and collage on canvas join painting with paper, fabric or found scraps into a surface you can read layer by layer. Acrylic and collage paintings on canvas for sale from 2,000 to 5,000 euro bring pictures in which material and paint appear as equals.
First comes glue, then paint, then partial covering again. Acrylic serves as paint and as binder that bonds paper firmly to the weave. Where the paint stays thin, printed letters or pattern scraps show through; where it lies dense, they disappear completely.

Styles and ingredients
Many pieces belong to the collage style and use paper in many variants, from tissue to cardboard. Fabric, thread and sand may join in too, as long as gel medium holds them securely.
Notes for deciding
Have the border areas shown to you, since badly glued pieces come loose there first. Ask about acid-free materials and a protective varnish. A floater frame protects the edges and leaves the layers free to stand.
