Isola™ Heavy Weight Oil Primed Artfix Linen

Our heaviest weight oil primed linen canvas. Great for large and small works with a very heavy body, yet has a refreshing medium surface tooth.
  • 100% Belgian Linen 8.6 oz; Primed Weight 14.1 oz per square yard
  • Heavy Weight, Dense Weave, Medium Texture
  • Double Sized and Double Primed with acid-free archival quality oil primed ground
  • Impenetrable ground prevents oil paint from leaching through and harming the canvas
  • For oils, alkyds, and water miscible oil paints
  • Linen has natural oils that prevent disintegration over time

Titanium Dioxide (TiO2) Primer Pigment

Our primer is made with the highest-quality Titanium Dioxide white pigment, which is an excellent pigment for acrylic primed grounds, providing superior whiteness and maintaining excellent flexibility over time. Unlike some other common pigments, such as zinc dioxide, TiO2 doesn't become brittle as it ages, helping to ensure that your painting will stand the test of time.

Oil paint on an oil primed canvas improves your results

Using an oil prepared canvas for oil painting can produce superior results because the paint and ground are organically similar and create an ideal "chemical bond" where the paint sinks into the ground resulting in a smoother and more even finish. The resulting bond between the paint and canvas is stronger, making the artwork more durable and long-lasting. Additionally, the melding of the two oil-based materials creates an effect called luminosity, where the colors appear to glow from within, and thereby enhances the vibrancy and brightness of the colors, impacting the way light reflects off the colors.

Flash an Oil Prepared Canvas with Mineral Spirits

While it is not required, for best results, lightly wipe or flash the oil prepared canvas with mineral spirits before painting to make sure that your surface is completely clean of any dust or contaminants before painting.

 

32x112 Frame Kit B2 Super Heavy Frame Offers the Ultimate Canvas Support!

  • Drawing depicts the exact frame construction, not the proportion
  • Precision Machined keyable Super Strong Stretcher Bars (1.5" deep by 2-1/4" wide) allow you to increase the canvas tension
  • Four Super Strong Keyable Braces and a Cross Brace Included (3/4" x 3.25")
  • The Bars have a clever utility groove on the inside perimeter of the frame to attach the cross braces
  • Unique Keyable Cross Braces allow you to tension the canvas in the middle, where it's needed the most
  • Cross braces are glued and stapled at the 'cross' for maximum support and rigidity
  • Both corner keys and brace keys are pre-installed
 

Elite™ Professional 1.5" Deep B2 Bar • 1/2" Canvas Clearance

A Canvas Clearance of 1/2" is the space between the Bar and the canvas. Generally speaking, more clearance reduces the risk of the canvas touching the wood and creating unsightly lines during painting. Our design provides the optimal clearance so as not to impact your painting, but still leaving enough wood to the maximize strength of the Stretcher Bar.
 

No Finger Joints!

Solid Wood is far superior to finger jointed wood, which is many small pieces glued together, each with varying grain densities that absorb and shed moisture at varying rates, expanding and contracting non-uniformly as environmental conditions change, and causing the wood to bow and the finger joints to eventually fail.

A single homogeneous kiln-dried solid wood Stretcher Bar outperforms and outlasts a finger jointed Bar whose sole purpose is to save the manufacturer cost, not contribute to the archival value of artwork intended to last a millennium. As a manufacturer, Masterpiece® does its part to conserve as much wood as possible, and still provide a quality product that will out-perform any other in the marketplace.

 

Cross Braces Make it Tighter

A tightly stretched canvas on an un-braced frame overpowers the Stretcher Bars causing them to bow inward and thereby lose tension. Sometimes that bow can expose a space in picture frames.

When we stretch a canvas on a properly supported frame, the cross-braces prevent the Bars from bowing thereby achieving maximum canvas tension. To increase the canvas tension even more, simply tap the corner and brace keys further in their slots. Properly supported frames provide you with the control over the canvas tension of your canvas and painting.

 

Sustainability Fights Against Climate-Change

Sustainable forestry practices are an important tool in the fight against climate change. By using lumber from sustainably managed forests in our products, we can help to reduce the carbon footprint of our business and support the health of the planet. It's a win-win for everyone involved.

Specially Dried and Heat Treated Lumber

Our wood is handpicked from a curated group of environmentally responsible lumber mills in the Pacific Northwest. By adhering to our precise drying and heat-treatment standards, these mills produce lumber with nearly half the moisture you'd find in common home improvement outlets or lumber yards. This meticulous process not only enhances the wood's strengthÑminimizing risks of cracks, splits, or bendsÑbut also elevates its dimensional stability. Such quality, despite its premium, is paramount in creating professional canvases designed to uphold the sanctity of your cherished art throughout the years.

 

Canvas Tension is in Your Control

In dry climates or air conditioned environments, the lack of moisture in the air causes wood frames to shrink and the canvas fibers to narrow and elongate making the canvas more slack and resulting in a loss of canvas tension. In some instances, the canvas could have waves on the surface resulting in an unsightly viewing experience.

Our Elite™ professional frames provide the functionality for you to slightly expand the size of the frame in the corners and the middle of the canvas, thereby increasing canvas tension all across the surface. The difference between a loose canvas and a tight canvas is just 1/8" of an inch, so a small adjustment using our corner and brace keys makes an important difference in canvas tension.

  • Helps to prevent waves that occur in a loose canvas
  • Increase canvas tension by tapping-in the corner and brace keys
  • True professional class canvases make it possible for you to adjust the canvas tension

God takes care of imbeciles, little children, and artists. ♦ Camille Pissarro

Camille Pissarro, a defining figure of Impressionism, held a unique perspective on life and art. Throughout his career, he witnessed the world transform and encountered numerous challenges, from societal resistance to personal setbacks. Yet, this particular sentiment reveals his unwavering belief in the providence that guides and protects the most vulnerable and genuine souls among us. It's a humbling reminder that, like little children and the misunderstood, artists too possess an innocence and a singular vision that needs nurturing and understanding.

Artists often tread uncharted territories, venturing where few dare. We take risks, defy conventions, and pour our souls into creating something beautiful, even if it's not immediately understood or appreciated. It's not just about mastering techniques or garnering accolades; it's about bearing our hearts on the canvas. This quote subtly assures us that in our moments of doubt, vulnerability, and creation, there is a greater force watching over, safeguarding our spirit and our work.


We've handpicked this quote and our interpretation of it's meaning to inspire your art. And we honor the legacy of Camille Pissarro by creating this one-of-a-kind portrait to tie it all together. Start Painting!
