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.

 

Our Ecosystem Depends on Healthy Forests

Forests play a vital role in our planet's ecosystem. They absorb carbon dioxide, filter air and water, and provide habitat for countless species of plants and animals. By using sustainably sourced lumber, we can help to protect these important ecosystems and ensure that they continue to provide these valuable services for generations to come.

 

25x109 is the Canvas Size Needed for this 15x99 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.

If you are not skillful enough to sketch a man jumping out of a window in the time it takes him to fall from the fourth story to the ground, you will never be able to produce great works. ♦ Eugé ne Delacroix

Eugé ne Delacroix, a towering figure in the Romantic art movement, often distinguished himself with his intense focus on motion and emotion. A pivotal figure in 19th-century French art, Delacroix's vibrant and dramatic compositions captured the tumultuous spirit of his times. His works, imbued with a sense of urgency and fervor, were a testament to his belief in the spontaneity and immediacy of artistic expression.

This provocative statement by Delacroix isn't merely about the speed of execution, but it underscores the importance of instinct, perception, and the raw connection between the artist and the moment. For us, it serves as a reminder of the vital role that instinct plays in our art. The ability to capture a fleeting emotion, a transient light, or a passing shadow speaks volumes about an artist's connection to their surroundings. Such instinctual prowess is what differentiates a good artist from a great one. It challenges us to sharpen our observational skills, to be ever-present, and to trust in our capabilities, recognizing that in the whirlwind of life's moments, it's our unique perspective and rapid response that will set our creations apart.


We've handpicked this quote and our interpretation of it's meaning to inspire your art. And we honor the legacy of Eugé ne Delacroix by creating this one-of-a-kind portrait to tie it all together. Start Painting!
