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. It is the absolute best way to stretch a canvas.

The artist paints not what he sees, but what he feels. ♦ Edvard Munch

Edvard Munch, the Norwegian painter and printmaker, whose works like The Scream have become iconic, believed that art was far more than a mere representation of the visible world. It's an inner exploration, a translation of emotions onto the canvas. For Munch, the visual elements were mere vessels, conduits to convey the tumultuous feelings that raged within him.

His career was distinguished by his ability to capture raw emotions and project them onto his art. Such an approach invites us, fellow artists, to be genuine in our expressions, to prioritize authenticity over accuracy. When we let our feelings guide our hands, our art becomes a profound reflection of our innermost selves. In a world saturated with images, it's our unique emotional perspectives that set our creations apart, making them resonate with others who seek genuine emotional connections.
