True 4:1 Super Panorama Proportion - 5x20 Size
This dramatic 5x20 size is in the 4:1 Aspect Ratio.
The 4:1 Super Panorama proportion has gained interest with a lot of artists, providing even a more dramatic and eye-catching compositional format. The unusual proportion provides the artist with a unique perspective with which to tell their story on canvas. This proportion is called a "polyomino proportion on the order of 4", or a linear tetromino object.

Vegan Ground:
There are no animal products that make-up the sizing and the primer for this fine canvas. Historically, traditional canvas grounds have included egg tempura, pigments with cow urine, and of course, rabbit skin glue. In today's rapidly advancing world, there are many more choices available for artists who prefer non-animal based products that perform far better than their animal-based predecessors.

Titanium Dioxide (TiO2) Primer Pigment
This primer contains premium-grade Titanium Dioxide (TiO2) white pigment, renowned for its exceptional performance in acrylic priming. Its standout feature is its enduring whiteness, coupled with remarkable flexibility that persists over time. In contrast to other pigments such as zinc dioxide, Titanium Dioxide maintains its resilience, preventing brittleness as it ages. This quality ensures that artworks retain their integrity and will stand the test of time.
Our Hardcore™ Pro Pro Canvas Panels are the flattest on the market. They are made using MDF (medium density fiberboard) which is the highest quality engineered wood board on the market. Moisture in the board can cause undesirable results to the panel and your artwork, which is why we size the board with four layers on the front before the canvas is mounted, thereby defending against moisture getting into the board and underneath your artwork.
Canvas Panels should be as flat as possible, otherwise, they don't display well in a frame, and can create spaces between the artwork and the frame. A bowed panel is also a sign of having been impacted by the effect of moisture. Canvas can shrink, even after it is mounted on the board. For this reason, Masterpiece® developed a unique proprietary process that stress-relieves each panel, thereby virtually eliminating the bow that is commonly found in competing panel products. Hardcore™ Pro Canvas Panels provide a stable foundation for your art.

♦ Robert Henri
A pivotal figure in American art and a leading voice of the Ashcan School, Robert Henri was a staunch advocate for authenticity. With a life that spanned countless artistic evolutions, Henri observed countless trends, yet he always circled back to the singular essence that every artist possesses: their own unique voice. To him, this wasn't just a poetic sentiment; it was a fundamental truth grounded in his own experiences and those of his peers.
For artists navigating the vast expanse of creative expression, this wisdom offers a reassuring anchor. In a world that often feels saturated with ideas, where the pressure to stand out can be overwhelming, it's heartening to remember that our individuality is indelible. It's not about inventing something entirely new, but rather about tapping into the innate originality that each of us holds. We might draw inspiration from others, experiment with various styles, or even dabble in mimicry as a form of study. But beneath it all, our unique essence remains intact. Henri's words serve as a poignant reminder: trust in our own voice, and let it shine through in every piece we create. After all, it's that originality that distinguishes our art, setting it apart in a world eager for genuine expression.
Every artist thrives on inspiration. So we've offer this insightful quote with a uniquely crafted portrait of Robert Henri. May this story invigorate your creativity! Start painting!
