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

This primer contains premium-grade Titanium Dioxide (TiO₂) white pigment, renowned for its exceptional performance in acrylic priming. Its standout feature is its enduring whiteness, coupled with remarkable flexibility that persists over time. In contrast to other pigments such as zinc dioxide, Titanium Dioxide maintains its resilience, preventing brittleness as it ages. This quality ensures that artworks retain their integrity and 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.

Our quest at Masterpiece® is clear: deliver unmatched excellence. This dedication has positioned us as the nation's beacon of quality in the world of professional fine-art canvases. Delve into our curated selection of surfaces and roll sizes, each promising perfection for your artistic endeavors.

A woman should be someone, not something. (reflecting her feminist leanings). ♦ Mary Cassatt

In the ever-evolving tapestry of societal norms, Mary Cassatt stood out as a beacon of empowerment, particularly during a time when women's roles were often circumscribed by rigid expectations. Her assertion that a woman should be someone rather than something wasn't just a testament to her feminist beliefs, but a call to arms for generations of women to recognize their own worth and capabilities.

This sentiment encourages us to challenge traditional narratives and to shed light on stories that might otherwise remain untold. We are entrusted with the power to transform perceptions and give voice to the voiceless. By embracing Cassatt's belief, we not only honor the depth and complexity of our subjects but also inspire and uplift those who engage with our creations, reminding everyone that every individual is an intricate tapestry of emotions, experiences, and aspirations, worthy of respect and admiration.
