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.

 

49x112 is the Canvas Size Needed for this 39x102 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.

Art is born of the observation and investigation of nature. ♦ Cicero

In the bustling forums of ancient Rome, amidst grand orations and political debates, Cicero profoundly recognized the inseparable bond between art and nature. His insight, although rooted in an age far removed from our digital era, remains strikingly relevant. Nature, with its unfathomable depths, endless intricacies, and awe-inspiring beauty, has always been a muse for those with an artistic inclination. It's within the soft hues of a sunset, the intricate patterns of foliage, or the majestic roar of the oceans, that artists often find their most profound inspirations.

For us, the process of creating is not merely about reproducing what we see but about delving deep into nature's secrets, understanding its rhythms, and translating that understanding into our work. Through observation, we learn the nuances of light and shadow, the way colors blend, and the intricate dance of lines and forms. Through investigation, we challenge our perceptions, question the obvious, and uncover layers of meaning hidden beneath the surface. Nature becomes not just a subject of our art but a teacher, guiding our hands and hearts as we seek to capture its essence. Cicero's words serve as a timeless reminder: as we immerse ourselves in the beauty and mysteries of the world around us, we tap into the very source from which true art flows.


Draw inspiration from the words of wisdom by Cicero, plus our interpretation of its meaning, along with our own rendered portrait of Cicero. Now get busy on your own canvas!
