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.

Forests play a vital role in our planet's ecosystem. They absorb carbon dioxide, filter air and water, and provide habitat for countless species of plants and animals.

Art is to console those who are broken by life. ♦ Vincent Van Gogh

The tumultuous and often tragic life of Vincent Van Gogh is characterized by his profound emotional depth and raw vulnerability. His paintings, brimming with swirling colors and dramatic brush strokes, seem to mirror the intense passion and pain he felt throughout his short life. This quote, succinct yet powerful, offers a glimpse into the therapeutic nature of his artistic endeavors.

For many artists, the canvas becomes a refuge, a space where emotions, both radiant and somber, can be poured out and processed. The act of creating offers a cathartic release, transforming pain into beauty. For the viewer, this artistic output can serve as a comforting embrace, reminding them that they are not alone in their struggles. Just as Van Gogh used his art to cope with his own mental anguish, he recognized its potential to heal, uplift, and offer solace to others.

We, too, can find comfort in the realm of art, allowing it to heal our wounds and provide a balm for our souls. Whether it's through creating or simply appreciating, art has the unique power to bridge the gap between despair and hope. In embracing Van Gogh's philosophy, we understand that art doesn't merely reflect beauty and joy; it's a beacon of light in our darkest moments, guiding us towards healing and inner peace.
