True Dynamic Root-5 Proportion - 9x20 Size
This 9x20 is one of our Dynamic Root-5 Rectangle Root-5 Rectangle series.
The Dynamic Root-5 rectangle is an inspiring proportion based on organizing your spatial composition with endless symmetrical divisions. The premise in Jay Hambridge's 1926 book is that the Dynamic Symmetry of individual elements are informed by their relationship to the entire composition. This very special proportion is guided by the square roots of integers and has a storied and historical basis in art.
It involves the use of geometric shapes and patterns in the proportion of the square root of 5 to 1 to create balance and harmony in a composition. This can be achieved by dividing a composition into a grid of squares or rectangles, and then placing elements within the grid in a way that follows the principles of dynamic symmetry. Dynamic symmetry is often used to create a sense of order and structure in a composition, and can be particularly useful for creating compositions that are harmonious and pleasing to the eye.
Here are a couple of other sizes in the exact same 20:9 proportion:

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.

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.
Try to paint the air.
♦ George Inness
At first glance, George Inness's instruction might seem intangible, almost abstract in nature. How does one capture the essence of something as elusive as air on canvas? Inness, with his transcendent approach to landscape painting, often sought to depict not just the tangible but the intangible, the moments and sensations that lie in the interstice of perception and reality.
Challenges like these invite a deeper engagement with our surroundings. It is not just about capturing a tree, a river, or a mountain, but the atmosphere, the light, and the very essence that surrounds and defines these elements. It's about translating the feeling of a dew-kissed morning or the haze of a humid afternoon. By attempting to paint the air, we immerse ourselves more profoundly in our environment, allowing our perceptions to guide our brush strokes. In the pursuit of this elusive goal, we uncover new layers of our craft and push the boundaries of what is conceivable in art.
Creativity is the reason you have landed on this page. Enjoy our own portrait rendition of George Inness and the spoken words and meaning we provide. Now..go paint!
