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.

 

15x20 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

An imbalance between rich and poor is the oldest and most fatal ailment of all republics. ♦ Plutarch

A historian and essayist of the Roman era, Plutarch had an astute understanding of the intricacies of societies. His observation about the dangers of a pronounced economic divide underscores not just a historical viewpoint but a universal truth that remains relevant today. In his time, Plutarch watched as great republics faced upheaval and even decay when they allowed vast disparities in wealth and power to grow unchecked.

This awareness offers a profound perspective. As individuals who often reflect societal concerns and norms through our works, we can appreciate the importance of balance and equality. The tension between abundance and scarcity, privilege and deprivation, can be both a source of inspiration and a call to action. We play a role in shaping the narrative and influencing perceptions, making it imperative for us to remain informed and empathetic to the challenges faced by all segments of society.


Creativity is the reason you have landed on this page. Enjoy our own portrait rendition of Plutarch and the spoken words and meaning we provide. Now..go paint!
