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.

When I know your soul, I will paint your eyes. ♦ Amadeo Modigliani

A painter whose unique style set him apart in the early 20th-century art scene, Amadeo Modigliani was known for his elongated portraits and sculptures. But more than mere physical representations, Modigliani's subjects exuded a depth that hinted at an unseen story behind each face. The quote encapsulates Modigliani's approach to art: he delved deep into understanding the essence of his subjects, believing that the soul's truest reflection is in the eyes.

Artists, by nature, are observers, continually seeking to capture the nuances that make a subject unique. Yet, Modigliani challenges us to go beyond the surface, to engage with our subjects on a profound level. Only by truly understanding their essence can we hope to convey their spirit on canvas. By connecting with the soul, we find the key to unlocking the truth in those ever-elusive eyes, giving depth and meaning to our work.
