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.

 

Our Ecosystem Depends on Healthy Forests

Forests play a vital role in our planet's ecosystem. They absorb carbon dioxide, filter air and water, and provide habitat for countless species of plants and animals. By using sustainably sourced lumber, we can help to protect these important ecosystems and ensure that they continue to provide these valuable services for generations to come.

 

22x69 is the Canvas Size Needed for this 12x59 Frame

Please note that you will need a canvas that is at least 10 Inches larger than the actual frame size to ensure proper stretching. This will provide ample material to stretch the canvas and attach it to the back of the frame. If you prefer to attach the canvas from the edge of the stretcher frame, you can reduce the size of your canvas by approximately 3/4" all the way around the frame. This will allow you to paint on the edge of the canvas and hang your artwork without needing a separate picture frame. And, if you ever need to remove the canvas from the frame and re-attach it, you'll have enough material to do that too.
 

Tight'n'Up™ Liquid Canvas Retensioner

One of our most appreciated products helps make your canvas tighter! Stretching a canvas tightly can be a challenge. Our Frame Kits include the Corner and Brace Keys that you will need to add tension, but Tight'n'Up™ Liquid Canvas Re-Tensioner is a way that you can use to add tension to the canvas without needed to use the keys. It canvas 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. Recommended for acrylic primed cotton or linen canvas. We do not recommend it for oil primed canvas because there are simply too many different types of oil primed canvas, but used conservatively at your own risk, it will tension any canvas.

What interests me most is neither still life nor landscape but the human figure. It is that which best permits me to express my almost religious awe towards life. ♦ Nicolas de Staël

For Nicolas de Staël, the human figure became a vessel through which he channeled his profound reverence for existence. While landscapes and still life have their own intrinsic beauty, de Staël's connection with the human form went beyond the superficial. It was a bridge to the essence of life, a mirror reflecting the complexities and wonders of being.

The human figure, in its endless variations and expressions, has long been a focal point for artists. Each contour, shadow, and gesture tells a story, revealing glimpses of the soul beneath. It is through this intimate portrayal that we, as artists, can communicate emotions and thoughts that words often fail to capture. When we engage with the human form in our work, we not only showcase the physical, but also celebrate the spirit, the vitality, and the shared experiences that bind us all.


We curated this empowering quote with some context and hope you find it insightful, plus we created this unique portrait of Nicolas de Staël to make it a bit more intriguing. Now get to work on your own!
