Masterpiece® proudly features an exquisite selection of Artfix linen canvas, a testament to the heritage and expertise of another family-owned business flourishing for over 50 years in Provence, France. Artfix is renowned for its diverse range of artist canvas, encompassing primed linens, cottons, and polyesters. The collection is particularly distinguished by its Belgian linen weaves, varying from fine-tooth, quad-primed linens to the characteristic Belgian "handkerchief" linen textures. This range extends to robust, heavy-toothed linens, perfect for large-scale artistic creations.

Each canvas undergoes meticulous preparation, starting with up to two layers of a specially formulated collagen and acrylic copolymer sizing. This crucial step ensures complete isolation of the fabric from the acidic nature of primers and paints. Subsequently, the canvases are primed with one to six layers of either oil-based or acrylic universal primer.

Artfix's acrylic universal primer represents a harmonious blend of modern and traditional priming techniques, offering many of the absorbent characteristics of oil-based primers, but with a ground that remains flexible over time and accepts a wide variety of paint types.

I am always doing what I cannot do yet, in order to learn how to do it. ♦ Vincent Van Gogh

Vincent Van Gogh's words offer a glimpse into his relentless pursuit of artistic growth and self-discovery. Despite a life marked by personal challenges and mental health struggles, Van Gogh's dedication to his craft drove him to continuously experiment and evolve as an artist.

As artists, we can resonate with Van Gogh's sentiment, as we too find ourselves pushing our creative boundaries, embracing challenges, and stepping into the unknown. Van Gogh's enduring legacy reminds us that the path to artistic growth is often fraught with uncertainty and discomfort, but it is precisely these experiences that lead to breakthroughs and profound self-discovery. By following his example and fearlessly embracing what we have not yet mastered, we can continue to evolve as artists, creating works that deeply resonate with the human experience.


We curated this empowering quote with some context and hope you find it insightful, plus we created this unique portrait of Vincent Van Gogh to make it a bit more intriguing. Now get to work on your own!
