Monet™ Pro 1.5" Deep 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 1.5" deep stretched canvas (Actual depth is slightly thinner)
• 1-5/8" wide Stretcher Bar
• 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.

• Fixed Corner Frame - Not keyable or expandable
• No cross braces required when the frame length is under 20", but this frame provides very robust and solid support for this 9x16 size frame

Nature never deceives us; it is always we who deceive ourselves. ♦ Jean-Jacques Rousseau

Jean-Jacques Rousseau, a polymath who dabbled in music, philosophy, and literature, held a deep reverence for nature and its unadulterated truths. He believed that human beings, in their quest for civilization and progress, often strayed from the innate goodness and simplicity of their natural state. The essence of this quote reflects his core belief that while nature remains constant in its truths, humans often wear masks of self-deception, clouded by societal norms and personal insecurities.

Artists, in their pursuit of expression, often turn to nature for inspiration and guidance. The raw beauty of the natural world offers a canvas of authenticity, urging us to shed our pretenses and embrace genuine emotion. When our art mirrors nature's truths, it holds an undeniable power. However, when we allow external influences or internal fears to sway our vision, we risk losing that purity. Rousseau's words encourage us, as artists, to be vigilant and honest in our self-reflection, ensuring that our creations remain untainted by the shadows of deception.

Tight'n'Up™ Liquid Canvas Retensioner

While all of our Masterpiece® Pro canvases are stretched very tightly and our frames have a built-in method to increase tension, we have another method to add canvas tension. Tight'n'Up™ Liquid Canvas Retensioner (sold separately) can 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.
