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.

The world has always been young and beautiful to the artist. Every day is a new beginning for him, and Nature loves him. ♦ Auguste Rodin

Auguste Rodin, a monumental figure in the world of sculpture, viewed the artist's relationship with the world through a lens of perpetual renewal and wonder. Living through the tumultuous turn of the 19th and 20th centuries, he was amidst the whirlwinds of societal changes. Yet, his sculptures, characterized by raw emotion and intricate details, demonstrated a timeless fascination with human form and nature. From the graceful arcs of his statues to the expressive countenances they bore, Rodin's work embodied a profound reverence for life's every nuance.

The world unfurls before us in a panorama of colors, emotions, and possibilities. Each dawn heralds a fresh canvas, a new chapter in our ever-evolving narrative. This perspective is our gift and our challenge. While the world around may age, weather, or grow cynical, artists continually perceive beauty in its most authentic forms. Nature, with its endless cycles and rhythms, mirrors our process Ñ always changing, always renewing. Embracing this synchronicity, we not only find solace but also an inexhaustible wellspring of inspiration. Thus, regardless of the challenges we face, our artistic souls remain eternally youthful, always seeking the next beautiful revelation that awaits just around the bend.
