8x10 3D Pro Isola Canvas 2-1/2" #DI-0810

True 5:4 Photography Proportion - 8x10 Size

And 8x10, of course, is one of the most popular sizes ever in both photography and art!

The 5:4 aspect ratio is common to both art and portrait photography, as it creates a visually pleasing format for the human figure and face. The balanced compositional format can help to create a sense of symmetry and harmony in your artwork. The 5:4 ratio has a familiar "feel", as it was commonly used in early computer monitors. Additionally, you might consider trying some relatively unknown sizes in this same proportion that we call Lost Sizes As an artist, you get the best of both worlds, because you still get to use the same aesthetically appealing 5:4 format and use rare or novel sizes that help make your art stand-out.

Explore other sizes in this same 5:4 aspect ratio:

12x15 • 16x20 • 20x25 • 24x30 • 28x35 • 32x40 • 36x45 • 40X50 • 44x55 • 48x60 • 52x65 • 56x70 • 60x75 • 64x80 • 68x85 • 72x90 • 76x95

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.

• 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.

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.

Perfume, like our clothing, should be in harmony with our individual taste, and yet be an expression of our inner self. ♦ Paul Gauguin

Paul Gauguin, known primarily for his evocative paintings, also possessed a profound understanding of the nuances of human identity. Just as he believed in the deep, personal nature of artistic expression, he viewed the choice of perfume, much like clothing, as a reflection of one's intimate self. In his travels and interactions with various cultures, Gauguin would have experienced a symphony of scents and styles, each carrying a distinct story and identity.

This sentiment reminds us that true creativity is an external manifestation of our innermost thoughts and feelings. Just as one might carefully select a fragrance or an outfit that resonates with their mood or identity on a particular day, our artworks convey the myriad emotions and experiences that shape us. As we pour our souls into our creations, we communicate not just with the world around us but also with the depths of our own being, striving for that perfect harmony that Gauguin so cherished.
