24 Inch Panel Porter Pair with Hardware P2-24

Paint and Carry Any Size You Like!

Panel Porter™ is a simple, versatile, and economical wet panel carrier that provides the most secure transport of your precious artwork available on the market. Insert your wet painted panels face-to-face in a wooden frame designed with metal pins that lock each corner. Air holes allow your painting to breathe while you transport your artwork.

One of the celebrated features of this product is they liberate artists to paint any size panels they want. Since Panel Porter™ are sold in sizes "every inch," you can paint any size panel you want and still can safely transport your artwork. You are not limited to only a handful of standard sizes that are commonly available.

For example, combine this 24 size with 8"" size and you can paint and port an 8x24, which happens to be a 3:1 Panorama size.

The 3:1 Panorama a proportion is preferred by many artists who require a super wide compositional format. Of course, this proportion is popularized by photographers and cinematographers, for ultra landscape and wide angled imagery that creates a sense of scope and grandeur in a scene, like cityscapes, ocean and mountain scenes, and scenes with expansive horizons. It is described as a polyomino proportion on the order of 3 or triple-square proportion. There are several common Panorama sizes in this 3:1 aspect ratio that you will recognize, and some are intriguing custom sizes, as well.

With a small collection of Porter™ sizes, you can mix-and-match to create a variety of canvas panel carriers making it easy for you to paint and carry sizes that you have never before tried. Masterpiece® has 75 standard canvas panel sizes, including proportions like the Golden Mean, Squares, HDTV, Root Rectangles, Fibonacci sizes, and many more!

Securely Transport Two Wet Canvas Panels of Any Size!

Your artwork should dictate the size of your carrier, not the other way around!

Panel Porter™ Profile View

Making your artwork as secure as possible is one of the key features and benefits of our unique wet panel carrier. Panel Porter™ transports two 1/8" thick wet panels, face to face. If you only paint one panel, then insert a dry panel in the other slot. The panels are spaced 1/2" apart, thereby providing adequate distance between the two paintings.

The inside groove of Panel Porter™ is tapered, which consequently barely touches the panel only at the extreme outside edge of the panel and thereby does not harm your artwork.

To assemble Panel Porter™, simply fit three Porter Bars together to form a U-Shape. There are two types of hardware. The brass clasps are for quick and easy assembly, and locking pins are the most secure method to secure the Porter frame. We recommend using the locking pins to construct the U-Shaped frame. Doing so makes it easier to prevent the Porter Bars from spreading open, in fact, using a screwdriver or a US Dime, tighten the corners firmly, so as the Porter Bars are as close to square as possible.

Holding the panel with one hand and with the art work facing up, slide the panel into the lower track of the U-Shape Porter. This is easier when the Porter bars do not spread apart, which is why we recommend using the locking pins to tightly hold the frame together.

Once you have the panel in the lower track, simply slide it in and try to keep the Porter Bars from spreading apart as you do this. You will notice that the Porter Bars have an angled track so as not to touch or harm your artwork.

Flip over the Panel Porter™ making sure that the Bars do not spread apart. Try to hold the Porter wood Bars and not touch your wet painting. This is easier when the Porter Bars do not spread apart.

In order to carry your wet panel inside Panel Porter™, you need a second panel to protect your artwork. If you only painted one panel, then you will need a second panel that is dry, or even one that is still in the celophane package. Either way, simply slide-in the second panel into the lower track.

When both panels are inserted into the U-Shape Porter, simply attach the remaining fourth Bar and squeeze it all together. You can insert the metal locking pins which becomes the most secure carrier on the market. Or you can insert the brass clasps, which is quicker to install, but not as secure. For short distances, they work fine in most cases.

Once you've locked-up Panel Porter™, you can put it in your backpack and go! The wood frame provides excellent protection for the edges of your panels. There are holes in the corners that allow your painting to degas while the artwork is inside the frame.

I must work, to be sure, and profit from this period of intellectual effervescence that gives me the understanding of the abstract. ♦ Paul Gauguin

Paul Gauguin's life was distinguished by an insatiable thirst for knowledge and a relentless pursuit of artistic authenticity. Leaving behind a conventional life in France, he ventured to far-off places like Tahiti, seeking a deeper understanding of humanity and art. The idea of intellectual effervescence he mentions can be understood as those rare moments of pure clarity and insight that come from dedicated introspection and exploration. For Gauguin, these periods were when he felt most alive and when his comprehension of abstract concepts in art became crystallized.
Artists often find themselves on the path of self-discovery, where our perceptions and interpretations constantly evolve. As Gauguin suggests, it's essential for us to recognize and harness these moments of heightened understanding. We, too, can immerse ourselves in our craft, benefiting from phases of inspiration and enlightenment. The acknowledgment that every period of our art career brings a new layer of comprehension is encouraging. It tells us that no matter where we are in our artistic exploration, there's always room for growth, understanding, and transformation.
By reflecting on Gauguin's experiences, we are reminded of the importance of persistence and the ceaseless journey towards understanding our innermost artistic inclinations. In doing so, we not only refine our craft but also understand the world and ourselves more profoundly.
We hope to inspire your art with this wonderful quote and our interpretation along with our own one-of-a-kind portrait of Paul Gauguin..got to love it!
