You can paint it if you like. I would definitely use a fabric medium (liquid additive to add to your paint so that it doesn't dry stiff). Try googling "painted fabric" to get more ideas.

Fabric dye might do better instead of paint.

yes you can what I suggest is washing it first and letting it dry completely. and then you can use any interior exterior spray paint I used a cheap version and it worked although I will say if I would have had access to a paint sprayer I would have used it my finger got sore and It wasn't a smooth fininsh...mine looked more like the 70's version lol...but I did a section at a time letting it dry completely it was easier to handle at that point ...love it though I am alittle quirky so I added a few of my own twistes

Absolutely! Just choose the correct paint. Both craft stores and paint stores will have a formula for canvas. Have fun!
