Linen question




OK - how embaressing, but there is an odd odor in my studio. I saw a mouse the other day, but I havent caught the sucker yet - so it isnt him. I'm using a linen canvas for the first time and it is fairly large. Do these have an odor? The smell reminds me of the Maine when you are driving past the paper factories.

Also - there is a slight outward denting where the crossbars hit the canvas. At first I figured it would work out, but now there is a little paint on it and those areas are flat and it is a glaring problem. Help!
