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.

Art should be like a holiday: something to give a man the opportunity to see things differently and to change his point of view. ♦ Paul Klee

Paul Klee, distinguished in his approach to visual expression, believed that the essence of art lies in its ability to offer fresh perspectives. In his lifetime, Klee experimented with an array of styles, each one offering a different lens through which to view the world. His works often pushed boundaries, pulling viewers into unfamiliar terrains and inviting them to embrace the unfamiliar. This mindset is reminiscent of holidays, where unfamiliar surroundings and cultures provide us with new viewpoints, enriching our understanding and appreciation of the world.

This emphasis on change and fresh perspectives is essential. Our creations serve not just as a reflection of the world but as a window into new possibilities. By challenging the status quo and presenting alternative views, we enable our audience to see beyond the everyday, to think critically, and to embrace the vastness of human experience. After all, art's transformative power lies in its capacity to offer a holiday for the mind, a break from the ordinary, and an invitation to see the world anew.
