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.

Sustainability in our Forests and our Communities

At Masterpiece®, we believe in responsible and sustainable business practices. That's why we only use lumber from sustainably managed forests in our products. By doing so, we can help to protect our planet's forests, reduce our environmental impact, and support the communities that depend on these valuable resources.

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.

Since 1965, our passion for perfection has driven us at Masterpiece® to construct professional quality canvases that artists around the nation desire. All too often, other brands are more focused on saving cost and delivering less than adequate quality. However, we find that our customers not only desire fine quality, but they also tell us that their art is better for having painted on the exquisite canvases that we produce.

Life is just one damned thing after another. ♦ Elbert Hubbard

A fervent advocate of individualism and an influential figure in the Arts and Crafts Movement, Elbert Hubbard was no stranger to the capricious nature of existence. His assertion about life's relentless sequence of events—both triumphant and challenging—speaks volumes about his own experiences navigating the complex tapestry of personal and professional pursuits.

This sentiment might resonate on multiple levels. Within our studios and beyond, we encounter a ceaseless cascade of emotions, ideas, challenges, and milestones. Whether it's grappling with a challenging technique, seeking inspiration amidst a creative block, or navigating the intricacies of exhibiting and selling our work, we continually face a succession of hurdles and achievements. Yet, it's this very unpredictability that fuels our passion and drives us to innovate, experiment, and evolve.

Hubbard's candid observation serves as a testament to the idea that while life may present us with a series of challenges, it's through these experiences that we grow, learn, and refine our craft. Embracing each moment, both the highs and the lows, ensures that we continue to enrich our artistic narratives and cultivate a deeper connection with our audience.

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.
