Masterpiece® takes pride in featuring the exceptional Artfix linen canvas, a hallmark of another family-owned business with over 50 years of expertise in Provence, France. Artfix stands out for its conservation-grade Belgian Linen, hand-primed by skilled artisans, catering to the needs of professional artists and conservation specialists. The collection boasts a variety of artist canvas types, including primed linens, cottons, and polyesters, highlighted by its Belgian linen weaves. From fine-tooth, quad-primed linens to the distinctive Belgian linen textures, the range covers a spectrum of desirable surfaces suitable for both intricate and large-scale artworks.

Each Artfix canvas is a masterpiece of preparation, beginning with up to two layers of specially formulated collagen and acrylic copolymer sizing. This essential process safeguards the canvas from the acidic elements in primers and paints, ensuring longevity and durability. Following this, the canvases receive between one and six layers of either oil-based or acrylic universal primer, making them versatile for various artistic mediums and techniques.

The oil-based primer from Artfix mirrors the traditional characteristics of lead priming but is free from harmful toxicity. This primer's unique properties enhance the absorption of oil paints, significantly improving adhesion, color depth, and luminosity. It is especially recommended for all oils and alkyd paints, providing artists with a reliable and high-quality surface for their creative expressions.

Life is like riding a bicycle. To keep your balance you must keep moving. ♦ Albert Einstein

Beyond his remarkable contributions to physics, Albert Einstein was also a profound observer of life's intricacies. This statement sheds light on a universal principle of momentum, a concept he understood deeply, both in the realms of physics and in the challenges of human existence. By comparing life to a bicycle, he subtly emphasized the idea of equilibrium — a balance between stillness and movement, between contemplation and action.

Artists often find themselves at crossroads, be it in creative ruts or moments of self-doubt. Just like riders who must pedal to avoid falling, we must continuously evolve, learn, and create to find our equilibrium. It is in the continuous act of creation and expression that we find stability in our art career, constantly pushing boundaries and challenging our own limits. The beauty of art, much like life itself, lies in its perpetual motion and evolution.


Celebrating the creativity in all of us, we've taken a step provide these words of wisdom and to immortalize Albert Einstein through our own unique portrait. Pick up your brush and create!
