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.

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.

Art is not the application of a canon of beauty but what the instinct and the brain can conceive beyond any canon.
♦ Auguste Rodin
When you dive into the intricate world of Auguste Rodin, a sculptor who played with forms, figures, and the very essence of what art could achieve, you witness a renegade spirit. The shackles of conventional beauty did not confine Rodin. Instead, he sought the uncharted territories of artistic expression, navigating the expanse of imagination. To him, art wasn't just about mirroring what was conventionally beautiful or expected. It was a quest to the unexplored realms of his own mind. His point is that true beauty of our work lies not in adhering to set standards, but in pioneering our own.
Every generation witnesses a shift, a movement that transcends these canons and etches new paradigms into the annals of artistry. We are each a torchbearers of this legacy, echoing Rodin's sentiment: to trust our instincts, embrace our unique perspectives, and bring to life the visions that dance in the recesses of our minds. Because in the end, it's not about fitting into a mold, but about breaking it, and letting our art shine in all its authentic and unconstrained glory.
Art is visual and ripe with meaning, so enjoy this quote and our interpretation of its meaning, plus an one-of-a-kind portrait we created of Auguste Rodin to make it all the more relevant. Pick up that brush and go!
