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.

An artist is not paid for his labor but for his vision. (reflecting sentiments of her time about the value of art).
♦ Mary Cassatt
In her era of burgeoning art movements and shifting societal perspectives, Mary Cassatt offered a viewpoint that still holds relevance today. She recognized the ineffable value of an artist's unique vision, an insight that goes beyond the hours spent laboring over a canvas or sculpting a masterpiece. Cassatt's own career was characterized by her distinct perspective, which brought forth the intimate moments of daily life with a depth and sensitivity seldom seen before.
Artists invest more than just time and effort; they invest a part of themselves, their thoughts, emotions, and experiences, into their creations. This vision, this soul, is what sets one piece apart from another. It's what makes art personal, relatable, and timeless. For us, as we navigate the challenges and joys of our art career, this sentiment serves as a reminder that our worth is intrinsically tied to our unique perspective, and that is what the world truly values.
To enhance your creative exploration of our site, we offer the insightful wisdom of Mary Cassatt, our interpretation, and little one-of-a-kind portrait that we created. Now go paint!
