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.

♦ Claude Monet
Claude Monet, the father of Impressionism, wasn't merely content with being a pioneer; he was obsessed with pushing boundaries, capturing fleeting moments, and redefining the way we perceive art and nature. Monet was no stranger to criticism and struggled in his early career, but he never let public opinion sway his dedication to his unique vision.
This sentiment encapsulates a profound truth. We, in our art careers, often grapple with the notion of identity and legacy. Do we want to be remembered for our titles, accolades, or the name we've carved out in the community? Or is it more crucial that our works and contributions tell the story of our passions, struggles, and triumphs? Monet encourages us to focus on the doing, on the creating, on leaving a tangible mark in the world rather than getting caught up in titles and recognition.
Our canvases, brushstrokes, and colors become the chronicles of our existence, and Monet's words urge us to ensure that these chronicles are rich, vibrant, and genuine. After all, in the grand tapestry of art history, it's the bold strokes, the revolutionary ideas, and the evocative pieces that endure. It's the deeds, not just the titles, that carve out a space in the annals of time.
We curated this empowering quote with some context and hope you find it insightful, plus we created this unique portrait of Claude Monet to make it a bit more intriguing. Now get to work on your own!
