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.

Forests need People, and People Need Forests

The concept of sustainability presupposes a comprehensive engagement of individuals in the art and science of forest stewardship, both in the present and for the well-being of generations to come. Humanity undoubtedly extracts wood from forests to supplement our needs, but they also play a crucial role in bestowing diligent care upon these ecosystems. This stewardship encompasses not only the responsible harvesting of forest resources but also extends to the safeguarding of clean water sources, the preservation of wildlife and their native habitats, and the mitigation of potential threats like erosion, fires, and diseases that could otherwise lead to untimely degradation of these precious woodlands.

Masterpiece® uses only lumber harvested from responsibly and sustainably managed timberlands.

Art is not what you see, but what you make others see. ♦ Edgar Degas

When Edgar Degas mused about art, he wasn't just talking about the curve of a ballerina's spine or the soft shadows cast by the gaslights in 19th-century Parisian cafes. No, he was diving into the depths of the artist's psyche. For Degas, art was a conversation, a dialogue between the artist and the observer. And isn't that what many of us, as artists, hope to achieve? We pour our emotions, experiences, and stories onto the canvas, hoping to ignite a spark, a recognition, or a moment of reflection in those who encounter our work. It's a game of whispers, where we seek not to replicate the world as it is, but to offer a new lens, a fresh perspective that might just make someone pause and think, Ah, so that's what it feels like.
