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.
Sustainably Managed Forests Coexist with Mankind
We use lumber grown in the sustainable forests of the Pacific Northwest, where thereÕs more standing timber today than last century! There will always be a demand for wood pulp and fiber, but striking a harmonious balance with human coexistence is the essential strategy to which we subscribe. Sustainably managed forests increase our health and abundance of our forests which can be in harmony with this precious natural resource.

The highest beauty is the recognition of the True, which the mind attains through Inspiration.
♦ George Inness
George Inness, whose landscape works are imbued with a transcendental quality, believed that beauty surpassed mere aesthetics. For him, beauty was a realization, an enlightenment that one achieves when confronted with truth. And this truth is not always tangible; it often lies beyond the reach of the physical, in the abstract realm of thoughts, emotions, and spiritual connections.
In the world of art, we are constantly seeking inspiration, yearning for that spark that ignites our imagination. But what Inness prompts us to consider is that this inspiration, when deeply examined, is often our mind's way of recognizing deeper truths. As artists, we possess the unique ability to convey these truths through our works, giving form and substance to intangible emotions and thoughts. Thus, every brushstroke, every color choice, and every composition we decide upon can be a testament to our search for and recognition of this universal truth. And in doing so, we not only create, but we also discover, learn, and evolve.
Creativity is the reason you have landed on this page. Enjoy our own portrait rendition of George Inness and the spoken words and meaning we provide. Now..go paint!
