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.

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.

 

Sustainable Forests - A Precious Natural Resource

The air that we breathe depends upon our healthy forests the world over. For this reason, we only use lumber from the sustainable forests of the Pacific Northwest, so we can guarantee that our nation's precious natural timber resources are available for future generations.

Specially Dried and Heat Treated Lumber

We source our wood from a select group of top-tier environmentally conscious lumber mills in the Pacific Northwest. These mills specially dry and heat-treat the lumber to our specifications, resulting in about half the moisture content compared to wood from typical home improvement centers or lumber yards. This process makes the wood stronger, reducing the likelihood of cracking, splitting, or warping. While the wood we use comes at a higher cost, it ensures a more dimensionally stable end product. This stability is crucial for crafting fine professional canvases that support your invaluable art over time.

 

30x94 is the Canvas Size Needed for this 20x84 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.

Strive not to be a success, but rather to be of value. ♦ Albert Einstein

Albert Einstein, the iconic physicist known for his groundbreaking theories, was not just a man of science, but also a profound thinker who delved deep into the nature of life, purpose, and human potential. Beyond his monumental scientific achievements, Einstein frequently pondered the essence of a meaningful life. While success often shines as a coveted goal in society's eyes, Einstein challenges this notion, urging a deeper, more enduring pursuit: value.

In the realm of art, this distinction is particularly salient. While accolades and recognition might define success, the true essence of an artist's contribution lies in the value they bring to the world. We, as artists, channel our creativity, passion, and vision into pieces that touch lives, instigate thought, and evoke emotion. The impact of a heartfelt masterpiece or a thought-provoking sculpture extends far beyond fleeting admiration. It becomes a part of cultural dialogues, inspires others, and, sometimes, even shapes the course of history.

Thus, by focusing on the value our work brings, we anchor our art career in purpose and authenticity. It's a call to look beyond transient markers of success and delve deep into what truly matters: making a difference, sparking change, and enriching the human experience. Embracing Einstein's wisdom, we find a path illuminated by purpose and lasting impact.


Creativity is the reason you have landed on this page. Enjoy our own portrait rendition of Albert Einstein and the spoken words and meaning we provide. Now..go paint!
