Raw Torrey Pines™ Belgian Linen 9.6 oz Unprimed

Heavy-weight dense-weave raw unprimed Belgian Linen. Take control of your art by preparing your own ground on Belgian Linen canvas. Use bare expanses of canvas as part of the painting or simply create the ground exactly ask you like.

  • 100% Belgian Linen 9.6 oz. per square yard
  • Heavy Weight, Tight Weave, Medium Texture
  • Raw fabric blocks 94% of the light, which indicates how tight is the weave
  • Warp and Weft: 40x36 yarns per square inch
  • Linen has natural oils that prevent disintegration over time.
 

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.

 

8x36 2.5" 3D Pro Deep Edge Heavy Duty Strainer Frame Offers Maximum Support!

  • Drawing depicts the exact frame construction, not the proportion
  • Super Strong Strainer Bars are 2.5" deep x 1-1/4" wide
  • Fixed Corner Frame - Not keyable or expandable
  • Super Strong Keyable Brace Included (3/4"" x 3.25")
  • The Bars have a clever utility groove on the inside perimeter of the frame to attach the brace
  • Patented Keyable Braces allow you to tension the canvas in the middle, where it's needed the most
 

Canvas Tension is in Your Control

In dry climates or air conditioned environments, the lack of moisture in the air causes wood frames to shrink and the canvas fibers to narrow and elongate making the canvas more slack and resulting in a loss of canvas tension. In some instances, the canvas could have waves on the surface resulting in an unsightly viewing experience.

Our 3D Pro 2.5 professional frames provide the functionality for you to slightly expand the size of the frame in the corners and the middle of the canvas, thereby increasing canvas tension all across the surface. The difference between a loose canvas and a tight canvas is just 1/8" of an inch, so a small adjustment using our corner and brace keys makes an important difference in canvas tension.

  • Helps to prevent waves that occur in a loose canvas
  • Increase canvas tension by tapping-in the corner and brace keys
  • True professional class canvases make it possible for you to adjust the canvas tension
 

Cross Braces Make it Tighter

A tightly stretched canvas on an un-braced frame overpowers the Stretcher Bars causing them to bow inward and thereby lose tension. Sometimes that bow can expose a space in picture frames.

When a canvas is stretched on a properly supported frame, the cross-braces prevent the Bars from bowing thereby achieving maximum canvas tension. To increase the canvas tension even more, simply tap the corner and brace keys further in their slots. Properly supported frames provide you with the control over the canvas tension of your canvas and painting.

 

Sustainable Environment Promotes a Sustainable Economy

The use of lumber from sustainably managed forests is not only environmentally responsible, it also helps to support the economy and preserve jobs in the forestry industry.

To me, barbarism is a rejuvenation. ♦ Paul Gauguin

Paul Gauguin's exploration beyond the comfortable and familiar boundaries of Parisian society led him to the rugged terrains and untouched cultures of places like Tahiti. In these barbaric lands, he found not just a new palette of colors and subjects, but also a renewed spirit of artistic vigor. It was a departure from the academic and the sophisticated, a return to the raw and the primal.

His perspective serves as a compelling reminder for artists. While the modern world often equates advancement with refinement, Gauguin invites us to find rejuvenation in the rudimentary. By embracing the primal, the unpolished, and the unrefined, we can often tap into an energy and creativity that sanitized environments might stifle. As we progress in our artistic paths, let's not forget the invigorating charge that can come from stepping into the uncharted, the wild, and the so-called barbaric


Every artist thrives on inspiration. So we've offer this insightful quote with a uniquely crafted portrait of Paul Gauguin. May this story invigorate your creativity! Start painting!
