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

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.

The sculptor produces the beautiful statue by chipping away such parts of the marble block as are not needed—it is a process of elimination. ♦ Elbert Hubbard

Elbert Hubbard, an influential writer and philosopher, illuminated the world with his wisdom, emphasizing the art of refining and honing one's craft. While his words may, on the surface, point to the literal art of sculpting, they delve much deeper, touching on the essence of creation across disciplines. By citing the sculptor's art of subtraction, he underscores that perfection often arises from discerning what to omit rather than what to add.

In our path as artists, we encounter countless choices, techniques, and ideas to experiment with. But over time, maturity and growth in our craft mean recognizing that not every stroke, note, or word is essential. Just as the sculptor reveals the statue's true form by chiseling away the excess, we too discover the essence of our work by shedding unnecessary layers. This notion of less is more becomes evident, reminding us that sometimes restraint and discernment are just as crucial as abundance and complexity.

For us, Hubbard's insight serves as a beacon, highlighting the importance of clarity, focus, and intent in our work. In every brushstroke we lay or note we play, we must ask ourselves if it adds to our envisioned masterpiece or merely clutters the canvas. In embracing this process of elimination, we don't just refine our art; we uncover its very soul, presenting it in its purest, most genuine form for the world to cherish.
