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.

Sustainable Forests Ensure More Wood for Communities

Using lumber from sustainably managed forests is not only the responsible thing to do, it's also a way to ensure that the wood products we rely on continue to be available in the future. By supporting sustainable forestry practices, we can help to ensure a steady supply of wood products while also protecting the environment and supporting local communities.

Titanium Dioxide (TiO₂) Primer Pigment

This primer contains premium-grade Titanium Dioxide (TiO₂) white pigment, renowned for its exceptional performance in acrylic priming. 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. This quality ensures that artworks retain their integrity and will stand the test of time.

You must always work. ♦ Auguste Rodin

The eminent Auguste Rodin, sculptor of masterpieces and arguably one of the hardest working artists of his era, didn't become legendary by just idly waiting for inspiration. This philosophy, simple yet profound, encapsulates Rodin's diligent approach to his craft. Art, for many of us, isn't just a pastime; it's a relentless pursuit of mastery and expression. Much like his intricately detailed sculptures, artists understand the significance of laboring over their canvas or medium, chiseling away at their visions until they can express their innermost sentiments with their art form.

For every The Thinker that stands proudly, pondering life's mysteries, there were countless hours, days, and even years of dedicated labor behind it. It's almost amusing to imagine Rodin, coffee in one hand, chisel in the other, muttering to himself, Just one more touch..We all share this unyielding passion and commitment. Whether it's the 50th revision of a sketch or the 100th blend of a particular hue, our work is never truly 'done'. It's a cycle of creation, critique, and refinement. In essence, to breathe life into our creations, we must breathe work into our daily routines. And as for those waiting for the muse to whisper in their ear? Well, perhaps she's just waiting for us to pick up the brush first.

Tight'n'Up™ Liquid Canvas Retensioner

While all of our Masterpiece® Pro canvases are stretched very tightly and our frames have a built-in method to increase tension, we have another method to add canvas tension. Tight'n'Up™ Liquid Canvas Retensioner (sold separately) can be sprayed on the back of a canvas to repair most canvas tension issues.

With Tight'n'Up™, you can add tension to just a small area, or a large area. Simply spray it lightly on the back and brush it into the canvas, and within seconds, your canvas becomes tighter and stays tighter. The more you use, the tighter it gets.
