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.

Life has no meaning unless one lives it with a will, at least to the limit of one's will. ♦ Paul Gauguin

A leading Post-Impressionist painter, Paul Gauguin is as much known for his vibrant art as for his relentless pursuit of purpose and passion. Breaking away from the prevalent art norms of his time, Gauguin sought meaning not only in art but in life, often venturing into the unknown, both literally and figuratively. He left behind the comforts of Paris to immerse himself in the cultures of Tahiti and Marquesas, searching for authenticity and a deeper connection to the human spirit.

Artists, in their endless exploration, often push boundaries and challenge the status quo. Gauguin's words inspire us to approach our art with vigor, to live and create with intent. Every brushstroke, every shade, and every texture we add to our canvas becomes a testament to our will to give life its fullest meaning. Just as Gauguin was not content with surface-level interpretations, we too are encouraged to infuse our creations with passion, pushing our limits to capture the essence of our vision.
