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.

 

Tree Replanting - Essential to Sustainably Managed Forests

Harvesting timber provides humans with an essential natural resource, but replanting trees at a rate higher than a harvest is a key component in humanity's effort to guarantee a healthy forest for the future. Increasing our number of trees is just as essential to our economy, as the harvest itself, which is why we select only timber harvested from responsibly managed forests.

Specially Dried and Heat Treated Lumber

Our wood is handpicked from a curated group of environmentally responsible lumber mills in the Pacific Northwest. By adhering to our precise drying and heat-treatment standards, these mills produce lumber with nearly half the moisture you'd find in common home improvement outlets or lumber yards. This meticulous process not only enhances the wood's strengthÑminimizing risks of cracks, splits, or bendsÑbut also elevates its dimensional stability. Such quality, despite its premium, is paramount in creating professional canvases designed to uphold the sanctity of your cherished art throughout the years.

 

45x104 is the Canvas Size Needed for this 35x94 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 more frightening the world becomes..the more art becomes abstract. ♦ Wassily Kandinsky

The visionary Wassily Kandinsky, often regarded as the pioneer of abstract art, shed light on the evolving nature of artistic expression in the face of global turmoil. His observations stemmed from a period rife with change, both artistic and societal. With industrialization, wars, and political upheavals shaping the world, the art landscape began to shift dramatically.

As external realities grow complex, often artists find solace and expression in abstraction, moving away from the literal to explore the conceptual. This shift isn't merely an aesthetic choice but a deep-seated response to external stimuli. It's a mechanism to process, reflect upon, and often escape from the intimidating facets of reality. We, too, find ourselves navigating a world that is constantly changing, often in ways that are overwhelming. Abstract art provides us with a sanctuary, allowing for interpretations and emotions that are as varied as the individuals experiencing them.

In essence, Kandinsky's words echo the transformative power of art. In challenging times, art evolves not to alienate but to offer a broader canvas for human emotion and experience. As the external world becomes more unpredictable, the canvas becomes our refuge, a place where we can project, reflect, and seek solace. It serves as a reminder that, in the face of adversity, our creativity can become a powerful tool for understanding, catharsis, and, ultimately, healing.


We curated this insightful quote by Wassily Kandinsky, and our interpretation thereof; plus we made this portrait in the spirit of creativity. Time to create your own expression!
