  • Linen has natural oils that prevent disintegration over time.
 

3D™ Pro 2.5 Stretcher Bar • 1/2" Canvas Clearance

1/2" Canvas Clearance is the space between the Bar and the canvas. Generally speaking, more clearance reduces the risk of the canvas touching the wood and creating unsightly lines during painting. Our design provides the optimal clearance so as not to impact your painting, but still leaving enough wood to the maximize strength of the Stretcher Bar.

  • Produces a 2.5" deep stretched canvas (Actual depth is slightly thinner)
  • 1.25" wide Stretcher Bar
  • All Bars have an exclusive groove on the inside perimeter of the frame to which cross braces and Diamond Corner Braces attach
  • Solid Ponderosa Pine or Fir from the Pacific Northwest
 

Solid Wood is Archival - Finger Jointed Wood is Not

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 make are part of the archival process.

The principal reason manufactures use finger jointed wood is reduce cost, not increase archival value. Wood constantly grows and shrinks when the environment becomes hotter, or colder, or more humid, or more dry. Because finger jointed wood is made-up of multiple and varied pieces of wood, with varying grain patterns and densities, they each absorb and shed moisture at varying rates, which works on the glue joints that hold them together, causing the wood to bow and the joints to eventually fail, and certainly not consistent with increasing the archival value of your artwork frame support.

As a manufacturer, we do our part to conserve as much wood as possible, and still provide a quality made product that will out-perform any other in the marketplace.

 

13x21 2.5" Deep Edge Heavy Frame Offers Maximum Support!

  • Drawing depicts the exact frame construction, not the proportion
  • 2.5" Deep Edge K2 Heavy Stretcher Bars are precision machined with a unique double tongue-and-groove corner joint that provides rock-solid torsional rigidity that resists warping or twisting, which is an important benefit for such a deep edge canvas
  • No Brace Required for this size
  • To increase canvas tension, remove any staples in the corners and tap all of the expansion keys further into their respective slots, then tension and re-staple the canvas in the corners
 

Sustainably Managed Forests Inhale and Exhale

The world's forests are essential to human survival. Forests inhale carbon dioxide for the earth, and exhale oxygen essential for life. When we speak of the sustainable forest strategy of ensuring that more timber will exist in the same forest land than exists today, this is the only viable plan for the future of humanity. For this reason, we use only lumber from the sustainable forests of Oregon, Washington, and California, where thereÕs more standing timber today than last century!

Strive not to be a success, but rather to be of value. ♦ Albert Einstein

Albert Einstein, the iconic physicist known for his groundbreaking theories, was not just a man of science, but also a profound thinker who delved deep into the nature of life, purpose, and human potential. Beyond his monumental scientific achievements, Einstein frequently pondered the essence of a meaningful life. While success often shines as a coveted goal in society's eyes, Einstein challenges this notion, urging a deeper, more enduring pursuit: value.

In the realm of art, this distinction is particularly salient. While accolades and recognition might define success, the true essence of an artist's contribution lies in the value they bring to the world. We, as artists, channel our creativity, passion, and vision into pieces that touch lives, instigate thought, and evoke emotion. The impact of a heartfelt masterpiece or a thought-provoking sculpture extends far beyond fleeting admiration. It becomes a part of cultural dialogues, inspires others, and, sometimes, even shapes the course of history.

Thus, by focusing on the value our work brings, we anchor our art career in purpose and authenticity. It's a call to look beyond transient markers of success and delve deep into what truly matters: making a difference, sparking change, and enriching the human experience. Embracing Einstein's wisdom, we find a path illuminated by purpose and lasting impact.


Journey with us as we blend the wisdom and our own artistic representation of Albert Einstein. May this alliance empower your artistic soul. Begin your masterpiece!

 

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.
