There are no animal products that make-up the sizing and the primer for this fine canvas. Historically, traditional canvas grounds have included egg tempura, pigments with cow urine, and of course, rabbit skin glue. In today's rapidly advancing world, there are many more choices available for artists who prefer non-animal based products that perform far better than their animal-based predecessors.

This quality ensures that artworks retain their integrity and will stand the test of time.

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.

What we achieve inwardly will change outer reality. ♦ Plutarch

In his profound wisdom, Plutarch has often captured the essence of human existence in simple yet powerful statements. Born in ancient Greece, he was not just a historian but a keen observer of the human condition, unraveling the intricate dance between the internal and external realms of our lives. This particular reflection sheds light on the transformative power of inner growth and its undeniable impact on the world outside.

In the expansive world of art, this sentiment is especially poignant. The personal evolution, introspections, and introspective journeys we undertake shape the art we create. Our deepest emotions, fears, aspirations, and dreams, once internalized and processed, manifest themselves in our artwork, affecting the way viewers perceive and interact with it. For artists, it's a reminder that our external creations are deeply intertwined with our internal states.

The canvas, then, becomes more than just a surface; it's a testament to our inner transformations. As we evolve and grow within, our art becomes a mirror, reflecting those changes to the world. It's an empowering realization: by fostering positive change and growth within ourselves, we have the potential to inspire and influence change in the world around us. Through our art, we don't just echo our personal transformations; we share them, encouraging others to embark on their own journeys of introspection and growth.
