7x14 Vincent Pro Pau Canvas 7/8 Inch Deep #VP-0714

True 2:1 Domino Proportion - 7x14 Size

An intriguing Domino size!

The 2:1 aspect ratio, that we call the domino proportion, also offers a unique canvas for artists to play with the perception of space and depth within their compositions. The elongated format allows for the inclusion of foreground, middle ground, and background elements, creating a sense of distance and scale that draws the viewer's eye into the artwork. This aspect ratio has been used by artists throughout history, from ancient Egyptian tomb paintings to Renaissance frescoes to contemporary photography. Its versatility and timelessness make it a classic choice for artists seeking to create dynamic and engaging compositions.

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.

Artfix Pau™ Portrait Smooth Belgian Linen offers a luxurious surface, ideal for highly detailed work. Preferred by portrait artists because it is so smooth for linen. Due to the nature of how flax plants are turned into linen textiles, there may be variations in yarn thickness thereby creating fabric that is individual in nature and has character. There can be infrequent naturally occurring nubs in the linen which may yield small slight bumps where the linen is a little thicker than the rest of the strand. This is normal and part of what gives linen its character.

No Finger Joints!

Solid Wood is far superior to finger jointed wood, which is many small pieces glued together, each with varying grain densities that absorb and shed moisture at varying rates, expanding and contracting non-uniformly as environmental conditions change, and causing the wood to bow and the finger joints to eventually fail.

A single homogeneous kiln-dried solid wood Stretcher Bar outperforms and outlasts a finger jointed Bar whose sole purpose is to save the manufacturer cost, not contribute to the archival value of artwork intended to last a millennium. As a manufacturer, Masterpiece® does its part to conserve as much wood as possible, and still provide a quality product that will out-perform any other in the marketplace.

I need a storm of color. ♦ Frida Kahlo

The vibrant and tumultuous life of Frida Kahlo, both on canvas and off, captured the essence of individuality and self-expression. Born amidst the political upheavals of Mexico, she endured a life characterized by physical pain resulting from a tragic accident. Despite this, her spirit remained unbroken, and she channeled her emotions into her artwork, often exploring her identity, gender, class, and race in Mexican society. Her self-portraits, pulsating with raw emotion and vivid colors, were reflections of her introspection.

When artists confront feelings of being different or isolated, Kahlo's words offer solace. Every brushstroke, every color selection, and every detail speaks of the artist's unique soul and perspective. By embracing our idiosyncrasies and putting them on canvas, we find that there are others out there who connect with our vision. For in a world teeming with billions, the shared experience of feeling distinct brings artists closer, making us realize that, in our quest for self-expression, we are never truly alone.
