Masonite Painting

When somebody speaks of painting, a canvas stretched firmly over a lightweight wooden frame is by far the most common medium that comes to our mind, but it is not the only one. The prevalent medium used during the Middle Ages as well as the Renaissance were wooden panels and they are having a major comeback in today's world. Even so, a wooden panel comes to be heavier than a stretched canvas, masonite is an outstanding brand of hardboard, which is a product of composite wood. Masonite being thinner than that of other wood materials, the weight of a panel seems to be a less problematic concern compared to the past.

However, the canvas is still significantly lighter. On the bright side, heavyweight means greater durability. Therefore, a simple canvas can be more readily damaged than a Masonite panel. One feature of a panel over a canvas is the ability to customize the surface. Prior to priming, there is no evident texture on the panel but a canvas has a woven texture that can be easily visible. That weaving texture is a component of the artwork until heavy coats of paint are applied. The artist can build any surface texture he or she desires by using a panel. A range of surfaces can be achieved during the priming phase. This kind of flexibility allows the artist to have more control over the final outcome along with an opportunity to express themselves.
