Style Name:Cotton 11.5oz - Raw Unprimed No. 12
This 24x30 size is in the 5:4 Aspect Ratio. Raw
Unprimed #12 cotton duck heavy duty canvas weighs 11.5 oz.. Take
control of your art by preparing and priming your own surface
texture, or use bare expanses of canvas as part of the art work.
It works great for staining or pouring techniques in which the
fabric threads soak up the thinned paint, resulting in abstract
color combinations, and a fluid and spontaneous convergence of
the image and the fabric, not possible with pre-primed canvas.
There is a 5/16" gap between the canvas and frame, eliminating
the unwanted lines that occur when the gap is less. We never use
finger joints in our wood frames, which often fail under tension
and over time - the glue joints give up, and are unsuitable for
paintings intended to last for centuries. Patented 3.25" wide
heavy duty keyable cross braces allow the canvas frame to be
tensioned in the middle, where the tension is needed the most!
The Stretcher Bars are slotted in the center to accept the cross
braces. Due to our unique design, the cross braces provide
maximum rigidity and may be removed, if desired. Both corner keys
and brace keys are pre-installed. Stretched using our proprietary
MuseumWrap method, producing a drum-tight-stretch, up to 50%
tighter than other methods, and with balanced tension across the
surface. The corners are uncut and neatly folded, making it
possible to remove and restretch the canvas on the same size
frame.
From the Manufacturer
---------------------
For 50+ years, the passion of the Masterpiece team
is building the finest artist canvas in America. Just touch one
of these impressive products and you’ll immediately discern the
quality characteristics that separate this canvas from any other.
Masterpiece takes pride in using high quality materials,
employing unparalleled workmanship, and continually upping the
bar on quality. The importance of artists using a quality made
canvas cannot be overstressed. If you use high quality paints
and brushes, then don’t waste your resources on an inferior
canvas not worthy of your own time, talent, and
reputation.Masterpiece canvases are built to last well beyond the
artist's lifetime…into the next millennium. Savvy art buyers and
art enthusiasts understand that the value of a painting increases
when the materials used to create it are of equal quality to the
artwork itself. Using a well-made canvas is an investment in
your own legacy.Why are Masterpiece canvases so good? It starts
with the canvas itself. Natural fiber canvas materials, like
100% cotton and Belgian Linen, are selected and inspected. A
sizing is then applied to the canvas that becomes a barrier
between the ultimate primer and the canvas material. The primer
is specifically designed to provide the ultimate surface upon
which your paints will join with the canvas, either ly
and/or mechanically, providing a reliable base or ground for your
art.The canvas is then ed onto a state-of-the-art Vincent
Pro frame. When frame sizes are 16” or larger, a brace is applied
to the frame; for example, a 12x16 has a single brace, and a
16x16 is cross braced in both directions. The braces prevent the
stretcher bar frame from bowing-in so the canvas stays
tighter….which is a welcome feature when you paint on the canvas,
making the surface more responsive to the artist’s touch. And the
canvas stays tight after it’s painted. To increase the tension
further, press-in the corner keys and the brace keys further into
the slots, which adds tension in the corners and the middle of
the canvas, where the tension is needed the most!Vincent Pro
canvas is MuseumWrapped, which is Masterpiece’s proprietary
stretching technique that achieves: a drum-tight stretch,
balanced tension across the canvas surface, neatly folded un-cut
corners, and paintable edges. It’s the absolute best way to
stretch a canvas.When your art matters, choose Vincent Pro…a
truly professional canvas in every way!
