Solid Wood is Archival - Finger Jointed Wood is Not

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 make are part of the archival process.

The principal reason manufactures use finger jointed wood is reduce cost, not increase archival value. Wood constantly grows and shrinks when the environment becomes hotter, or colder, or more humid, or more dry. Because finger jointed wood is made-up of multiple and varied pieces of wood, with varying grain patterns and densities, they each absorb and shed moisture at varying rates, which works on the glue joints that hold them together, causing the wood to bow and the joints to eventually fail, and certainly not consistent with increasing the archival value of your artwork frame support.

As a manufacturer, we do our part to conserve as much wood as possible, and still provide a quality made product that will out-perform any other in the marketplace.

Sustainability Promotes Social Well-Being

The forests of the world are a precious resource that must be protected for future generations. By using lumber from sustainably managed forests in our products, we can help to ensure that these valuable resources are preserved and protected. This is not only important for the environment, but also for the social and economic well-being of the communities that rely on these forests for their livelihoods.

24x77 is the Canvas Size Needed for this 14x67 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.

The world has always been young and beautiful to the artist. Every day is a new beginning for him, and Nature loves him. ♦ Auguste Rodin

Auguste Rodin, a monumental figure in the world of sculpture, viewed the artist's relationship with the world through a lens of perpetual renewal and wonder. Living through the tumultuous turn of the 19th and 20th centuries, he was amidst the whirlwinds of societal changes. Yet, his sculptures, characterized by raw emotion and intricate details, demonstrated a timeless fascination with human form and nature. From the graceful arcs of his statues to the expressive countenances they bore, Rodin's work embodied a profound reverence for life's every nuance.

The world unfurls before us in a panorama of colors, emotions, and possibilities. Each dawn heralds a fresh canvas, a new chapter in our ever-evolving narrative. This perspective is our gift and our challenge. While the world around may age, weather, or grow cynical, artists continually perceive beauty in its most authentic forms. Nature, with its endless cycles and rhythms, mirrors our process Ñ always changing, always renewing. Embracing this synchronicity, we not only find solace but also an inexhaustible wellspring of inspiration. Thus, regardless of the challenges we face, our artistic souls remain eternally youthful, always seeking the next beautiful revelation that awaits just around the bend.
