You can try some of the big art stores in your area or online to see if they sell a size similar to what you're looking for. See links below.
If you can't find the exact size you can:
1. Stretch your own canvas on stretcher bars you can buy individually. See link below for instructions.
2. Ask a framing shop if they will stretch canvas for you. Many of them do, for a price.

If they don't have your size, make your own. It's not hard. Just make a wooden frame the size you want, buy some canvas and stretch it across and staple the ends. It should be very tight. They sell canvas stretchers for that. If it's raw canvas you may need to put a gesso coating on it before painting.

your best bet will probably be to stretch your own. You can buy canvas on a roll at most art supply stores, and they should have different sized frames you can adjust. get a staple gun and get to work...

The large art supply houses, like Pearl or Dic Blic will have canvas large enough to stretch over your house. They are on line.

Try your local frame shop. Michaels or Hobby Lobby might also be able to help you.
