canvas

I've read everywhere that works painted with oil pastels should always be framed behind glass. It bothers me, I'm not a big fan of this format, I've sent an email to Sennelier, the reference house for oil pastels, unfortunately I haven't had any response as to their recommendation on the subject.There's only one solution, I'm going to try it myself, I'd like to be able to paint on canvas, not having a studio, the question of storage is a very important issue for me. I don't have the space to store a multitude of frames in my Paris apartment.I have a small canvas that I'm going to unstrap, paint, fix with Sennelier fixative, wait for it to dry well and roll up my work, I'll wait a week to see if my work cracks. I'll post my result here and the whole process, whether it's conclusive or not!
