12x24 Hardcore Pro Muir Plein Air Canvas Panel #HA-1224

True 2:1 Domino Proportion - 12x24 Size

12x24 is one of our popular Domino 2:1 sizes.

The 2:1 aspect ratio, that we call the domino proportion, also offers a unique canvas for artists to play with the perception of space and depth within their compositions. The elongated format allows for the inclusion of foreground, middle ground, and background elements, creating a sense of distance and scale that draws the viewer's eye into the artwork. This aspect ratio has been used by artists throughout history, from ancient Egyptian tomb paintings to Renaissance frescoes to contemporary photography. Its versatility and timelessness make it a classic choice for artists seeking to create dynamic and engaging compositions.

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.

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.

If you hear a voice within you say you cannot paint, then by all means paint, and that voice will be silenced. ♦ Vincent Van Gogh

The life of Vincent Van Gogh is a testament to the triumph of passion over adversity. A post-impressionist painter known for his expressive use of color and bold brushwork, Van Gogh's career was distinguished by his unwavering commitment to his art, even in the face of personal struggles and societal skepticism. Despite battling mental health issues and grappling with feelings of inadequacy, he pursued his artistic vision with relentless vigor.

For many artists, self-doubt is a constant companion, whispering critiques and undermining confidence. But as Van Gogh's words suggest, the act of creating can be the most powerful antidote. Each brushstroke, each sketch, each composition asserts our place in the artistic realm and diminishes the shadows of doubt. By immersing ourselves in our craft, we not only silence the internal critic but also foster growth and mastery. In acknowledging the challenges and embracing the act of creation, we stand in solidarity with artists like Van Gogh, celebrating the transformative power of art.
