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
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.

Sustainably Managed Forests Coexist with Mankind
We use lumber grown in the sustainable forests of the Pacific Northwest, where there’s more standing timber today than last century! There will always be a demand for wood pulp and fiber, but striking a harmonious balance with human coexistence is the essential strategy to which we subscribe. Sustainably managed forests increase our health and abundance of our forests which can be in harmony with this precious natural resource.
25x38 is the Canvas Size Needed for this 15x28 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.

It is the artist who realizes that there is a supreme force above him and works gladly away as a small apprentice under God's heaven.
♦ Auguste Rodin
Auguste Rodin, the genius behind 'The Thinker' and a myriad of sculptures that encapsulated the very essence of humanity, held a perspective of art that was both humbling and enlightening. In essence, he paints a picture not just of the artist's place in the universe, but of the profound connection between creation and divinity. He gently reminds us that while artists may wield the brush or chisel, the true force of inspiration comes from something far greater, a force beyond our comprehension, pushing us to create, explore, and express. It's as though we are instruments in the hands of the cosmos, channeling its wonders onto our canvases, sculptures, and compositions.
But, beyond the grandeur and mysticism, lies an endearing image: that of the artist as an eager apprentice. An apprentice learning, growing, and evolving under the vast expanse of God's heaven. Each piece we create, every note we compose, all the colors we blend, are testament to our path towards discovery and reverence. And as we tread this path, with our hearts open to the universe's whispers and our hands crafting its stories, let's embrace our roles as humble apprentices. For in acknowledging the grand tapestry of existence and our tiny, yet significant place within it, we not only elevate our art but also our understanding of the divine dance between creation and creator.
Embrace the synergy of this profound quote with our interpretation of it's meaning with a nice little portrait that we created of Auguste Rodin. Time to create!
