Vegan Ground:

There are no animal products that make-up the sizing and the primer for this fine canvas. Historically, traditional canvas grounds have included egg tempura, pigments with cow urine, and of course, rabbit skin glue. In today's rapidly advancing world, there are many more choices available for artists who prefer non-animal based products that perform far better than their animal-based predecessors.

Titanium Dioxide (TiO₂) Primer Pigment

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

Muses work all day long and then at night get together and dance. ♦ Edgar Degas

Edgar Degas, with his striking depictions of dancers and Parisian life, remains a touchstone in the world of Impressionism. Beyond his famed ballerinas, Degas possessed a keen eye for movement, for the rhythms that govern human existence. This quote, laced with imagery and romanticism, encapsulates the duality of an artist's life—of labor and celebration, of discipline and abandon. Just as muses toil through the day, bringing inspiration to those they touch, they also revel in the joy of creation when night falls. It is a nod to the tireless work behind every artistic pursuit and the elation that follows once it finds its form.

For artists, our creative process can be rigorous, even exhausting. We immerse ourselves in crafting, refining, and perfecting. Yet, once our work sees the light of day, the rewards are often immense. The dances of our muses are those moments of clarity, of satisfaction, when all the pieces fall into place. It reminds us that after every period of intense focus, we too should celebrate our achievements, big or small. In the rhythm of creation and celebration, we find balance, ensuring that our passion remains alive and our spirits stay invigorated.
