Masterpiece® Monet Pro Canvas is several steps ahead of any other shaped canvas on the market. The frames are made with MDF (medium density fiberboard), which is highest quality engineered wood on the market.
We use a heavy 10 oz. triple primed canvas. We stretch it drum-tight, and we staple the canvas on the back, which is a painstaking process, but allows you to remove the canvas from the frame, if you ever need to do so. No other shaped canvas on the market offers all of these benefits and features on shaped canvases.

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
Our primer is made with the highest-quality Titanium Dioxide white pigment, which is an excellent pigment for acrylic primed grounds, providing superior whiteness and maintaining excellent flexibility over time. Unlike some other common pigments, such as zinc dioxide, TiO2 doesn't become brittle as it ages, helping to ensure that your painting will stand the test of time.
Professionally Stretched Shaped Canvas Drum Tight
Masterpiece® Monet Pro shaped canvases are stretched drum-tight and stapled on the back, making it possible for you to remove the canvas from the frame, should you ever need to do that. Our product is unique in the marketplace and offers a superior method of stretching that allows you to remove and restretch the canvas onto this or another similarly shaped frame without losing part of your painting. We provide enough canvas selvage to make it possible to restretch, should it ever be necessary.1/8" Canvas Clearance
The canvas is 3/4" deep and has a minimum of 1/8" clearance between the canvas and the frame to help prevent the ghosting that occurs when applying pressure to the canvas and it touches the frame. Adequate clearance between the canvas and the frame is essential to prevent the tracing of the inside perimeter of the frame on your painting. This is a unique Masterpiece® feature for a shaped canvas.One of the most celebrated features of this fine shaped canvas is how tightly stretched it is. Masterpiece® believes that even shaped canvas can and should be professional quality, which is why we produce the best quality shaped canvas on the market.
Every time I paint a portrait I lose a friend.
♦ John Singer Sargent
John Singer Sargent, a master of portraiture, was acutely aware of the weight and responsibility of capturing a subject's essence on canvas. While his skill was unparalleled, the intimate nature of portraiture often led to the exposure of vulnerabilities, unseen facets, and sometimes, uncomfortable truths. The realization of one's own likeness, with all its complexities, might have strained relationships. As artists, we frequently grapple with this tension - the balance between our creative interpretation and the subject's self-perception. Through our work, we can form deep connections but also face the risk of revealing more than what might be palatable to our subjects.
We are innately drawn to the act of creation. We've channeled this drive to curate this inspiring quote and contex along with our own portrait we created of John Singer Sargent..our tribute to the timeless dance of creativity. Go paint!
