True 3:1 Panorama Proportion - 8x24 Size

This unique 8x24 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.

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.

Forests need People, and People Need Forests

The concept of sustainability presupposes a comprehensive engagement of individuals in the art and science of forest stewardship, both in the present and for the well-being of generations to come. Humanity undoubtedly extracts wood from forests to supplement our needs, but they also play a crucial role in bestowing diligent care upon these ecosystems. This stewardship encompasses not only the responsible harvesting of forest resources but also extends to the safeguarding of clean water sources, the preservation of wildlife and their native habitats, and the mitigation of potential threats like erosion, fires, and diseases that could otherwise lead to untimely degradation of these precious woodlands.

Masterpiece® uses only lumber harvested from responsibly and sustainably managed timberlands.

Its standout feature is its enduring whiteness, coupled with remarkable flexibility that persists over time. In contrast to other pigments such as zinc dioxide, Titanium Dioxide maintains its resilience, preventing brittleness as it ages.

I hope to depart in no other way than looking back with love and wistfulness and thinking, 'Oh paintings that I would have made!'. ♦ Vincent Van Gogh

For someone like Vincent Van Gogh, the act of creating was not just a pastime but a relentless drive, an unwavering force that consumed his every thought. The canvases he left behind are a testament to a life lived in passionate pursuit of beauty and meaning. Yet, even in this intense dedication, Van Gogh felt the weight of time and the infinite possibilities that lay just beyond his reach.

This sentiment is one that many of us can identify with, especially when considering the path of our art careers. The boundless horizons, the ideas not yet brought to life, and the art not yet formed—it all beckons with the allure of what could be. In embracing this longing, we not only honor the work we've done but also the work that lies ahead. It's a delicate dance between satisfaction and yearning. As artists, our creative spirit is both a gift and a challenge, pushing us to constantly envision more, even as we cherish the masterpieces we've already crafted.
