15x24 Hardcore Pro Muir Plein Air Canvas Panel #HA-1524

True Golden Mean Proportion - 15x24 Size

This 15x24 size is one of our Golden Mean sizes, considered the most pleasing shape to the eye!

The Golden Ratio, also known as the Golden Mean or Divine Proportion, is considered the most aesthetically pleasing proportion to the human eye. This proportion has been used in art and architecture for thousands of years, and countless examples can be found in nature, plant life, galaxies, and the human body. The Golden Mean can also be used as a guide to arrange your subjects on the canvas in concert with other Golden Mean shapes like an ellipse, star, triangle, and spiral, resulting in intriguing compositions. Many famous artists, such as Michelangelo, Da Vinci, Mondrian, Botticelli, Dali, and Seurat, have used this proportion in their art, and many contemporary artists continue to use it exclusively. The Golden Ratio can even produce some mathematically intriguing relationships that relate directly to art, architecture, science, and human intrigue. If you're looking for a challenge and inspiration, consider using a canvas in the proportion of the Golden Mean to create a composition that will come alive in the most intriguing ways!

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.

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.

Hardcore™ Pro Professional canvases are built one-by-one and stretched using our proprietary stretching process called, MuseumWrap™, which relies on in-house custom-built pneumatic machinery that delivers consistently drum-tight stretched canvas, balanced tension across the canvas surface, neatly folded uncut corners, and paintable edges.

For my part, I know nothing with any certainty, but the sight of the stars makes me dream. ♦ Vincent Van Gogh

Vincent Van Gogh, a name that today resonates with vibrant colors, swirling skies, and an innate connection to the world's underlying emotions. He was not just a painter but a visionary, one who delved into the depths of the human psyche through his art. This sentiment reflects a profound humility and wonder that characterized much of Van Gogh's life. In the vast universe of knowledge, he found solace in the sheer beauty of the cosmos, allowing it to inspire and guide his artistic path.

The stars, distant and enigmatic, have been a source of inspiration for many, but for artists like us, they symbolize the endless possibilities of creativity. We are often confronted with doubts, questions, and the weight of uncertainty in our art career. Yet, in moments of contemplation, when we raise our eyes to the night sky, we are reminded of the infinite potential that lies ahead. Just as Van Gogh was moved by the majesty of the stars, we too can harness that inspiration, channeling it into our work, dreaming beyond the constraints of the known and into the realm of the possible.
