How or what do I use to glue a picture to canves?

you did not answer my question

Hi Linda,

You could use Mod Podge or Liquitex

Keep your collages from peeling and fading: Properly glue down and seal your mixed-media work with a quality acrylic medium. A necessary substance for collage making, medium is an adhesive that goes on semiopaque but dries clear. Mediums are breathable, permanent, and protect against UV damage and discoloration. Used as a glue, they ensure your materials will stick and stay. Used as a top coat, they unify your work’s surface and ensure that your collage will be long-lasting. Available in many forms and volumes, there are a variety of collage mediums to choose from. To make sure you pick well, browse our selection of the best options below.

1. Mod Podge Waterbase Sealer

Mod Podge’s matte sealant is a classic choice. All-in-one mediums are our favorite option for collaging, because you can stick individual materials down and then go over the whole surface with one layer. Water-based and nontoxic, this trusted product comes in sizes ranging from 4 to 128 ounces. Easily apply coats with a brush or sponge and wait only 15 to 20 minutes for each coat to dry clear. This medium is strong enough that you can sand the surface for a smoother finish.

2. Liquitex Professional Matte Fluid Medium

This matte fluid medium is another all-in-one option. Available in bottles ranging from 4 to 128 ounces, this lightweight and nontoxic medium goes on opaque and dries translucent. Mix it with acrylic colors to achieve more blendable paint consistency. With a creamy texture and fast dry time, this is another one of our top medium choices.

Buy: Liquitex Professional Matte Fluid Medium

Either of these should be available at Michaels or any craft store.

Hello it might depend on the thickness of the paper. Some thinner papers react to liquid glue and warp and bubble. Certain glues and tapes can discolor as they age —if they’re not acid free choices.

An archival glue-stick ( acid free) or dispensing double-sided tape like framers use might be recommended.

Can you wrap the edges of the paper around the canvas frame? If so you could use staples.

To stick paper to canvas, you‘ll require a decoupage glue, like Mod Podge, or an acrylic tool.

You could use Mod Podge or spray mount. Does it need to be canvas? It would adhere better with those glues on a hard board.

Are the pictures you want to paste made from photo paper (have they been developed from film?), shiny magazine paper, from regular printer weight paper, or something else?

Either Mod Podge or spray mount would be great choice for this.

I would use 3M Super 77 spray adhesive.

Mod Podge gets my vote.
