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.

In art, we find solace from the complexities of life. ♦ Pierre-Auguste Renoir

A master of Impressionism, Pierre-Auguste Renoir lived in an era of rapid change and societal upheaval. The late 19th century was a tumultuous period marked by advancements in technology, shifts in cultural norms, and the underpinnings of modernity. Yet, in the midst of this swirling tide of change, he found a sanctuary in his art, much like we all do. Through his vibrant canvases, he celebrated the joys of life, from bustling Parisian cafes to serene landscapes and intimate moments shared between loved ones.

Similarly, many of us turn to our art as a refuge from the challenges and uncertainties that life throws our way. In the process of creating, we reconnect with ourselves, rediscover our inner peace, and find clarity amidst chaos. Renoir's perspective is both timeless and deeply personal. Through art, we not only escape life's burdens for a moment but also reinterpret and reimagine them, giving voice to our innermost feelings and experiences. His words are a testament to the transformative power of art, reminding us that, amidst life's complexities, we have a unique medium to find solace, expression, and meaning.
