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

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.

What is Sustainable Forestry?

To a forester, the term "sustainable" could mean exercising industry adopted forestry practices to maintain a forest indefinitely. To a logger, the process of proper care for the trees remaining after a harvest. To a landowner, their interest may lie in keeping their forest in the family. And to those of involved in the process of making and using wood-based art supplies, it can mean promoting and supporting an industry dedicated to the preservation of our precious natural resource. We can all do our part to care for our national forests.

24x72 is the Canvas Size Needed for this 14x62 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.

I am like a moon that shines on an immense, unknown sea where ships never pass. ♦ Auguste Rodin

Auguste Rodin, the mastermind behind the universally revered The Thinker sculpture, often navigated the nebulous realm of his own thoughts and emotions. This introspective journey might have sometimes felt lonely and vast, much like a moon illuminating a boundless, deserted sea. Artists frequently sail in these internal oceans, charting the uncharted, hoping to bring something profound and unheard of to the surface. The solitary nature of this introspective voyage can often feel both hauntingly beautiful and deeply isolating.

Yet, isn't that the true essence of the artistic journey? As artists, we venture into the depths of our souls, shining light on the darkest and most undiscovered parts of ourselves. While the vast sea of our internal world might seem devoid of ships or external validation, it's teeming with rich experiences, memories, and emotions that shape our creations. This solitude, while daunting, offers us a unique vantage point. From here, we get to see the world and ourselves from a perspective that's truly our own. And even if the ships of widespread acclaim or understanding never pass through, the very act of shining, of creating, becomes its own reward.
