Versailles™ Oil Primed Artfix Linen

Choice oil primed linen canvas with more substantial body. It has a warm golden hue and is an excellent painting surface, even for larger sizes.

  • 100% Belgian Linen 6.1 oz.; Primed Weight 14.6 oz. per square yard
  • Medium Weight, Closed Weave, Medium Texture
  • Double Sized and Double Primed with acid-free archival quality oil primed ground
  • Impenetrable ground prevents oil paint from leaching through and harming the canvas

Titanium Dioxide (TiO2) Primer Pigment

This primer contains premium-grade Titanium Dioxide (TiO2) white pigment, renowned for its exceptional performance for oil 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.

Every brushstroke carries the weight of emotions, each color the depth of my thoughts. ♦ Paul Gauguin

Paul Gauguin's career was characterized by an unyielding pursuit of emotional and expressive depth. With each venture from the bustling streets of Paris to the tranquil islands of the South Pacific, Gauguin sought not only a change of scenery but a deeper connection to the raw and primal energies of life. This manifested in his art as vibrant colors, bold forms, and a distinctive style that often blurred the line between dream and reality.

For many artists, the canvas becomes more than just a medium; it's a confidante, a space where we translate our deepest sentiments into visual narratives. Gauguin's words serve as a poignant reminder of this bond. As we navigate the challenges of our art careers, it's vital to remember that it's not about producing an exact replica of the world outside but creating a portal into the world within. The depth of thought and emotion we pour into our work is what gives it life, setting it apart and making it uniquely ours.


We've handpicked this empowering quote and offer insightful context to inspire your art. We've even created this unique portrait of Paul Gauguin to provide a personal touch to your browsing experience. Now start on your painting!
