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.
- Produces a 3.5" deep stretched canvas (Actual depth is slightly thinner)
- 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
- Solid Ponderosa Pine or Fir from the Pacific Northwest
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.

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.
24x40 is the Canvas Size Needed for this 14x30 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.

When I am, as it were, completely myself, entirely alone..my ideas flow best and most abundantly.
♦ Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
One of history's most prodigious musical talents, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart experienced the world through a unique lens. From an early age, he demonstrated a profound connection to music, one that seemed to be woven into the very fabric of his being. The melodies, harmonies, and rhythms that flowed from his mind were not just learned skillsets but expressions of his deepest emotions and observations.
There are moments when solitude becomes an essential sanctuary. Away from the bustle and distractions of the world, we find a space where our true selves can emerge unencumbered. In these moments of stillness, the mind is free to wander, explore, and create without boundaries. It's in this solitude that we often discover our most authentic and powerful ideas, unfiltered by external influences or expectations.
Yet, it's essential to recognize that while solitude can be a catalyst for creativity, the experiences and interactions we have in the broader world provide the raw material from which our art is crafted. It's a delicate balance, one that each of us must find in our path, to ensure that our art remains both genuine and relatable to others. Mozart's dedication to his craft and his intuitive understanding of this balance continue to inspire us, reminding us that true artistry often emerges from the depths of introspection.
We curated this insightful quote by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, and our interpretation thereof; plus we made this portrait in the spirit of creativity. Time to create your own expression!
