Masterpiece Monet Pro MUIR 12oz Belgian Linen Canvas 1.5" Gallery 12"x16"
Monet Pro means a 1-1/2" deep canvas that is stretched using Masterpiece's MuseumWrap back-stapled method with folded corners. Their proprietary stretching process uses pneumatically controlled machines that we built to yield drum-tight tension. Up to 50% tighter than other methods.
Masterpiece's Muir Acrylic Primed Belgian Linen has a bright white tone. 100% Belgian Linen 5oz; Primed Weight 12oz. per square yard (4 x Primed -- 2 x Size & 2 x Primer). Medium weight, open weaved with a textured surface. Double sized and double primed with acid-free archival quality acrylic gesso. The impenetrable ground prevents oil paint from leaching through and harming the canvas.
Ideal for acrylics, oils, alkyds and water miscible oil paints. Linen has natural oils that prevent disintegration over time.
Masterpiece's Monet Pro 1.5" Deep Bar has 1/2" canvas clearance which is the space between the bar and the canvas. More clearance reduces the risk of the canvas touching the wood and creating unsightly lines during painting. Masterpiece's design provides the optimal clearance so as not to impact your painting, but still leaving enough wood to maximize the strength of the stretcher bar.
Note: 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.
