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.

I am adding another small figure to the right—it is necessary for the composition. No matter if it spoils the picture. One must sacrifice everything to composition.
♦ Paul Gauguin
Paul Gauguin's approach to art was often driven by an innate sense of balance and aesthetics, rather than a strict adherence to realistic representation. This commitment to the composition above all else stemmed from his belief that the essence of a painting was not necessarily in its subject, but in how the elements within it were arranged and related to one another. In making choices that might seem unconventional or even counterproductive to the untrained eye, Gauguin demonstrated an unwavering trust in his vision.
The challenges we face in our artistic careers often mirror Gauguin's bold commitment. There are times when our choices might seem unusual or counterintuitive to others, but they are necessary for our unique vision. Just as Gauguin was unafraid to alter his painting for the sake of composition, so must we sometimes prioritize our creative instincts over external expectations. It's a reminder that in the realm of art, it's not always about capturing reality, but about crafting a new one that aligns with our vision.
We curated this empowering quote with some context and hope you find it insightful, plus we created this unique portrait of Paul Gauguin to make it a bit more intriguing. Now get to work on your own!
