Masterpiece Classic™ 3/4" Deep Bar • 1/16" Canvas Clearance

- Solid Ponderosa Pine or Fir from the Pacific Northwest

Finger Jointed Wood is not meant for Stretcher Bars
Solid wood makes the most dependable Stretcher Bar, because one homogeneous wood member is going to behave similarly across the entire length of the Bar. Whereas, with finger-jointed wood is made-up of multiple pieces of wood, sometimes on the actual joint itself, presenting multiple points of failure which no one can control.
We only use Solid Wood to build our Stretcher Bars because a solid piece of wood will last indefinitely. When we speak of archival value, it's not just the paint you use and the quality of your canvas and ground, even the wood choices manufacturers add or reduce value to your final painting. The fact is, you don't want problems, and finger joints only increase that risk of the wood falling apart in the future.
The glue used to bind finger joints is a water based adhesive and when that wood is exposed to high humidity environments, particularly with exterior walls, the glue joints can give-up. 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.

Tree Replanting - Essential to Sustainably Managed Forests
Harvesting timber provides humans with an essential natural resource, but replanting trees at a rate higher than a harvest is a key component in humanity's effort to guarantee a healthy forest for the future. Increasing our number of trees is just as essential to our economy, as the harvest itself, which is why we select only timber harvested from responsibly managed forests.

When one is painting one does not think.
♦ John Singer Sargent
Deep within the flow state that John Singer Sargent frequently immersed himself in, there's a realm where thoughts dissipate, and instinct takes over. Sargent, known for his spontaneous style, allowed his intuition to guide his brush strokes, resulting in fluidity and dynamism in his works. Such states of pure creation are familiar to many of us. As artists, we often find ourselves in moments where the world fades, time loses meaning, and our hands move seemingly of their own volition. It's in these moments that art transcends mere technique and becomes an extension of our very souls.
We've handpicked this quote and our interpretation of it's meaning to inspire your art. And we honor the legacy of John Singer Sargent by creating this one-of-a-kind portrait to tie it all together. Start Painting!

Tight'n'Up™ Liquid Canvas Retensioner
While all of our Masterpiece® Pro canvases are stretched very tightly and our frames have a built-in method to increase tension, we have another method to add canvas tension. Tight'n'Up™ Liquid Canvas Retensioner (sold separately) can be sprayed on the back of a canvas to repair most canvas tension issues.
With Tight'n'Up™, you can add tension to just a small area, or a large area. Simply spray it lightly on the back and brush it into the canvas, and within seconds, your canvas becomes tighter and stays tighter. The more you use, the tighter it gets.
