3D™ Pro 3.5 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.

• 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

Finger Jointed Wood is not meant for Stretcher Bars

Solid wood makes the most dependable Stretcher Bar, because one homogeneous wood member is going to behave similarly across the entire length of the Bar. Whereas, with finger-jointed wood is made-up of multiple pieces of wood, sometimes on the actual joint itself, presenting multiple points of failure which no one can control.

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 add or reduce value to your final painting. The fact is, you don't want problems, and finger joints only increase that risk of the wood falling apart in the future.

The glue used to bind finger joints is a water based adhesive and when that wood is exposed to high humidity environments, particularly with exterior walls, the glue joints can give-up. 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.

24x37 is the Canvas Size Needed for this 14x27 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.

Wandering re-establishes the original harmony which once existed between man and the universe. ♦ Anatole France

A renowned French writer of the late 19th and early 20th century, Francois-Anatole France wasn't just an observer of the human condition, but a deep thinker who often ruminated on the relationship between humans and the vast cosmos surrounding them. He went on to win the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1921 for his brilliant achievements in literary prose, characterized by nobility of style and profound human sympathy.

France's reflections on wandering take us back to a time when man was more intimately connected with nature, living in sync with the rhythms of the world around him. Wandering is more than a physical journey; it's an exploration of our inner landscapes, a quest for artistic inspiration, and a reconnection with the raw beauty of the world. We often find ourselves seeking new horizons, be it through travels or the meanderings of our imagination. In these explorations, we discover fresh perspectives and a renewed sense of belonging to the grand tapestry of existence. The act of wandering, be it through forests, cities, or the canvas, is our way of harmonizing our spirit with the universe, rekindling that ancient bond and understanding the beauty and chaos that coexist in the world around us.
