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.

You are not alive unless you know you are living. ♦ Amadeo Modigliani

A figure of bohemian Paris and an artist whose life was as dramatic as his creations, Amadeo Modigliani understood the profundity of truly experiencing life. Amidst the whirlwind of the early 20th century, he sought depth and meaning in every moment, rejecting mere existence in favor of passionate living.

This statement is both an invitation and a challenge. We are tasked with translating the vibrancy of life onto our canvases, pulling from our deepest emotions and observations. Yet, to do so requires us to be fiercely present in our own lives, to feel deeply, and to be acutely aware of our surroundings. It's a call to immerse ourselves in the world, to engage with it wholeheartedly, and then to share our unique perspectives with others. It's through this cycle of experience and expression that we not only come to know we are living but also enrich the lives of those around us.
