Description

Vanessa Lemen is a storyteller and educator whose work blends vibrant color, illusionistic texture, and a deeply felt connection to nature and memory. Known for her richly layered oil paintings, Vanessa draws on memory as a guiding force and is celebrated for her expressive yet controlled brushwork.

These panels feature Artefex’s premium 531, 533, 535, and 574 Allinpanel series. Each panel is archival-grade and primed with oil or acrylic linen. Whether you choose medium, fine, or extra-fine weave, the surface supports vivid layering and smooth blending, perfect for luminous shadows and layered dimension.

Surface Details: What Makes Each Panel Unique

• 531 Lead Primed Linen (Medium Weave): Lead oil-primed medium weave linen with balanced tooth and absorbency, ideal for general oil techniques.

• 533 Lead Primed Linen (Fine Weave): Fine-textured linen with lead white oil ground for precision brushwork and reduced absorbency, great for detailed painting.

• 535 Acrylic Primed Linen (Fine Weave): Acrylic-primed fine weave linen on a rigid panel, lightweight and warp-resistant, offering controlled texture for bold oil or acrylic strokes.

• 574 Acrylic Primed Linen (Extra Fine Weave): Ultra-smooth, extra-fine linen ideal for detailed work with minimal tooth, rendering luminous color and crisp edges.

✨ Upcoming Workshop with Anna Rose Bain

The Portrait and Beyond

Dates: June 5–12, 2026

Location: Hotel Leone, Le Marche, Italy

Join Anna for a 7-day alla prima painting retreat focused on portraits from life, plein air sessions, and classical techniques infused with a modern edge. The week includes demonstrations, critiques, excursions, and hands-on guidance.

Why I use them: I love these panels because they always arrive in perfect condition (no bubbles or warping, which other commercially prepared linen panels sometimes have), and they are the perfect texture for my working style. I love that they are slick enough to push the paint around, but still have enough tooth to build up layers of paint fairly quickly. To be honest, I've never done a bad painting on one of these panels!
