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.

- Drawing depicts the exact frame construction, not the proportion
- Strainer Bars are 2.5" deep x 1-1/4" wide
- Fixed Corner Frame - Not keyable or expandable

I am that clumsy human, always loving, loving, loving. And loving. And never leaving.
♦ Frida Kahlo
Frida Kahlo, an iconic figure whose life was characterized by profound emotional intensity, knew the depths of love and its power to heal and hurt. Through a myriad of challenges, from her accident to tumultuous relationships, Kahlo channeled her raw emotions into her art, making her canvases mirrors of her heart's most intimate revelations.
For many artists, emotions become the driving force behind their creations. As artists, when we pour ourselves into our work, we often find that the lines between our personal feelings and our artistic expression blur. Kahlo's statement serves as a reminder of the vulnerability we willingly embrace in order to truly connect with our audience. The relentless passion, the unwavering dedication, and the undying love - these are the traits we wear as badges of honor, unafraid of our imperfections and the chance of rejection. Because at the end of the day, it's our undying love for art and its potential to touch lives that keeps us going, always loving, and never leaving.
Creativity is the reason you have landed on this page. Enjoy our own portrait rendition of Frida Kahlo and the spoken words and meaning we provide. Now..go paint!
