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

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.

11x17 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

Shadows cannot see themselves in the mirror of the sun. ♦ Paul Gauguin

Paul Gauguin's metaphorical insights often straddle the line between art and philosophy, and this statement is no exception. Through this poetic lens, Gauguin seems to highlight the inherent limitations of perception and understanding. Shadows, ephemeral and intangible, are by their very nature devoid of substance when exposed to the brilliance of the sun. Similarly, certain elements of our artistic endeavors remain elusive when directly confronted or overanalyzed.

Every artist knows the struggle of translating a vivid imagination onto canvas. Sometimes, the raw emotions or intricate visions we hold are best expressed not by direct illumination, but by the subtle interplay of light and darkness, the nuanced dance of what is revealed and what remains hidden. For us, it's a reminder that not every detail needs to be explicitly shown; sometimes, the most potent emotions are conveyed through implications and nuances.

As we immerse ourselves in our work, it's worth pondering the spaces between the overt and the subtle. The realms Gauguin alludes to—those areas untouched by the sun's direct light—are where true depth often resides. In our pursuit to bring life to our art, it's crucial to embrace both the brilliance of clear vision and the mystery of shadows. Only then can we hope to capture the full spectrum of human experience and artistic expression.
