True 1:1 Square Proportion - 9x9 Size

This 9x9 size an intriguing and atypical small size odd square.

The square is perhaps the most intriguing proportion, as it is root of all of the other proportions. It is commonly used in both photography and art. Squares are typically used as the center canvas of a triptych or as a single canvas hung at a 45° angle. The square proportion is long used with medium format professional cameras, and most photographs we see on websites and social media are based on square images. Since all sides of the canvas are the same length, your eye is drawn evenly across the surface of the painting creating a sense of harmony, balance, and a generally a pleasing visual experience. The square format is also a good choice for artists who focus on geometric shapes or patterns in their work, as the regularity of the square shape can help reinforce these elements. Some artists enjoy the challenge of working within the confines of a square format, as it forces them to think creatively resulting in intriguing compositions.

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
 

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.

Sustainably Managed Forests Coexist with Mankind

We use lumber grown in the sustainable forests of the Pacific Northwest, where thereÕs more standing timber today than last century! There will always be a demand for wood pulp and fiber, but striking a harmonious balance with human coexistence is the essential strategy to which we subscribe. Sustainably managed forests increase our health and abundance of our forests which can be in harmony with this precious natural resource.

The missionary is no longer on speaking terms with the ladies of the Pomares family; he wants to convert them to the regime of shirts. But it's quite cold in a wet shirt. Besides, aren't they much prettier this way? ♦ Paul Gauguin

During his time in Tahiti, Paul Gauguin was continuously intrigued by the collision of cultures, especially the push and pull between European norms and Polynesian traditions. The clash he alludes to in this quote speaks to the broader themes of cultural assimilation and the judgments that often arise when one culture confronts another. For Gauguin, the natural beauty and simplicity of Tahitian life had an allure that often contrasted with European rigidity and decorum.

Similarly, in the world of art, there's a parallel between the imposition of external norms and the artist's inherent desire for freedom. Just as Gauguin found beauty in the traditional ways of the Tahitian people, we, too, should remember that true beauty often lies in authenticity and unfiltered expression. Rather than bending to the confines of societal expectations, the heart of artistry is in celebrating and capturing the essence of our subjects as they are, seeing the world through our own lenses, and appreciating the myriad of perspectives it has to offer.


Creativity is a dance between inspiration and innovation. Our own self portrait creation of Paul Gauguin twirls alongside these profound words, hoping to set the stage for your next artistic performance. Now go do your dance on the canvas!
