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.

What is Sustainable Forestry?

To a forester, the term "sustainable" could mean exercising industry adopted forestry practices to maintain a forest indefinitely. To a logger, the process of proper care for the trees remaining after a harvest. To a landowner, their interest may lie in keeping their forest in the family. And to those of involved in the process of making and using wood-based art supplies, it can mean promoting and supporting an industry dedicated to the preservation of our precious natural resource. We can all do our part to care for our national forests.

To have the respect of such men as these gives any man an untouchable armor against the world. ♦ Robert Henri

Robert Henri, a prominent figure of the Ashcan School, was more than familiar with the weight that validation carries in an artist's life. His words highlight the profound impact of recognition, especially when it comes from those we deeply admire. In the realms of art, where subjectivity reigns supreme and criticism is ever-present, the acknowledgment from peers or mentors can fortify an artist's confidence and serve as a beacon during tumultuous times.

For artists, the path is often filled with both acclaim and rebuke. But when those whom we hold in high esteem recognize our endeavors, it provides a shield, an affirmation that our direction, however unorthodox or challenging, is valid. This recognition, however, shouldn't solely be a source of pride; it should also inspire us. As artists, we have the responsibility to support and uplift others, to be the beacon for those coming up behind us. In doing so, we not only enrich our own experiences but also fortify the collective strength and resilience of our community.
