Bonjour!

Welcome to Lin du Nord. We have high-quality raw unprimed linen canvas from Natural Roots – Proudly selected & prepared in Quebec, Canada

Who we are

Lin du Nord is a family business based in Sherbrooke, Quebec, Canada. We bring three decades of our family’s experiences in linen craftsmanship, production and sourcing, backed by a long‑standing partnership with an outstanding weaving mill in China. Using 100% high‑quality flax grown in France or Belgium, we ensure consistent, premium linen canvas prepared locally for our clients.

Our mission is to support art supplies, canvas stretchers, artists who value raw, natural, eco-friendly, and - above all - durable materials. We stand with those who seek authenticity in a world increasingly filled with disposable, computer/AI-generated "art". We believe in craftsmanship that lasts, helping preserve your work for generations to come.

What we have

Just linen - Our unprimed linen canvas is made from European-grown flax (primarily from France and Belgium), known for its superior tensile strength and exceptional longevity—built to last for generations with proper care. It is naturally eco-friendly and ideal for both oil and acrylic painting, each roll is carefully inspected, selected, and prepared in Canada to ensure the highest quality for your creative masterpiece.
