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.

Mystery is a necessity for an artist, for everyone. It is the source of all art and science. ♦ George Inness

George Inness, with his profound affinity for capturing the intangible essence of landscapes, recognized the invaluable role of the enigmatic in the creative process. Delving into the unknown, artists like Inness explore uncharted territories of imagination and expression. The enigma serves not as a barrier but as a beckoning, urging us deeper into the realms of creation and discovery.

Every brush stroke on a canvas, every chiseled line on a sculpture, and every note in a composition originates from an inner quest to decipher the world around and within us. As artists, we are constantly propelled by the questions that don't have easy answers, the emotions that defy definition, and the visions that remain just beyond our grasp. This eternal pursuit of the elusive feeds our passion and enriches our work, pushing us to new heights and depths. As we wrestle with the unknown, we uncover layers of ourselves, tapping into the universal desire to understand and be understood. Mystery, then, is not just a source but the very lifeblood of our craft, a reminder that in seeking, we find, and in wondering, we create.
