True 1:1 Square Proportion - 6x6 Size

6x6 is a popular small size square size.

The square is perhaps the most intriguing proportion, as it is root of all of the other proportions. It is commonly used in both photography and art. Squares are typically used as the center canvas of a triptych or as a single canvas hung at a 45° angle. The square proportion is long used with medium format professional cameras, and most photographs we see on websites and social media are based on square images. Since all sides of the canvas are the same length, your eye is drawn evenly across the surface of the painting creating a sense of harmony, balance, and a generally a pleasing visual experience. The square format is also a good choice for artists who focus on geometric shapes or patterns in their work, as the regularity of the square shape can help reinforce these elements. Some artists enjoy the challenge of working within the confines of a square format, as it forces them to think creatively resulting in intriguing compositions.

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

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.

A friend is someone who knows all about you and still loves you. ♦ Elbert Hubbard

Elbert Hubbard, an influential writer and philosopher, had a keen understanding of human relationships and the complexities of the human soul. In a world where the superficial often takes precedence, Hubbard's insight emphasizes the depth and authenticity of true friendship. His writings often addressed the value of genuine connections and the beauty of unconditional love.

For artists, our work is a reflection of our innermost thoughts, desires, and fears. As we translate our emotions onto canvas or through any other medium, we bare our souls to the world. It's our friends, those precious few who understand our deepest layers, who stand by us, championing our visions and comforting our doubts. In our art careers, amidst critiques and reviews, it's the unwavering support of these friends that bolsters our spirit. Their love, undeterred by our flaws and vulnerabilities, is a testament to the profound connections we are capable of, a reminder of the beauty that emerges when we embrace each other's imperfections.


To enhance your creative exploration of our site, we offer the insightful wisdom of Elbert Hubbard, our interpretation, and little one-of-a-kind portrait that we created. Now go paint!
