10X30 3D Pro Torrey Pines Canvas 2-1/2" #DTP-1030

True 3:1 Panorama Proportion - 10X30 Size

This unique 10x30 is actually a fairly common 3:1 proportion used in art and cinema.

The 3:1 Panorama a proportion is preferred by many artists who require a super wide compositional format. Of course, this proportion is popularized by photographers and cinematographers, for ultra landscape and wide angled imagery that creates a sense of scope and grandeur in a scene, like cityscapes, ocean and mountain scenes, and scenes with expansive horizons. It is described as a polyomino proportion on the order of 3 or triple-square proportion. There are several common Panorama sizes in this 3:1 aspect ratio that you will recognize, and some are intriguing custom sizes, as well.

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.

10X30 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.

What moves men of genius, or rather what inspires their work, is not new ideas, but their obsession with the idea that what has already been said is still not enough. ♦ Auguste Rodin

Auguste Rodin, the mastermind behind the renowned sculpture The Thinker, was no stranger to the world of art's demands and intricacies. With his hands molding clay and bronze into forms that seemed to breathe life, he stood at the pinnacle of sculpture during his time. The essence of his statement taps into a sentiment that many creative minds can identify with: the relentless pursuit of expression.

It isn't merely about crafting something novel or revolutionary; it's about communicating an idea, an emotion, a sentiment. And sometimes, it feels as though words or brushstrokes or chiseled stone can't quite capture the entirety of what one wishes to convey. This drive, this insatiable desire to articulate what lies deep within, pushes us to go beyond, to revisit, refine, and reimagine.

As we navigate our art careers, it's crucial to remember that revisiting themes, subjects, or techniques doesn't signify stagnation. Instead, it showcases a profound commitment to perfecting our craft and to ensuring our message is clear, resonant, and authentic. In echoing the sentiments of the past while adding our own touch, we ensure that our artistic voice is both a tribute and a testament to the ever-evolving realm of art.
