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.

Those who are serious in ridiculous matters will be ridiculous in serious matters. ♦ Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec

With his keen observational skills, Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec wasn't just the chronicler of the cabarets and bohemian life of Paris but also a shrewd commentator on human nature. This quote exemplifies his ability to discern and portray the eccentricities and contradictions inherent in people. His observation touches upon the incongruities in human behavior, wherein misplaced priorities often lead to baffling outcomes.

We often encounter this in our own art careers, observing those around us, while prioritizing the inconsequential over the essential. Yet, it's in these observations that creativity often finds its most vibrant expression. We have the unique opportunity to turn these quirks into profound statements, reminding ourselves and our audiences of the importance of discerning what truly matters. Lautrec's reflection serves as a reminder to approach our work and our lives with a balanced perspective, valuing the serious and the light-hearted in equal measure, and understanding the nuances that make the human experience so rich and diverse.
