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
Finger Jointed Wood is not meant for Stretcher Bars
Solid wood makes the most dependable Stretcher Bar, because one homogeneous wood member is going to behave similarly across the entire length of the Bar. Whereas, with finger-jointed wood is made-up of multiple pieces of wood, sometimes on the actual joint itself, presenting multiple points of failure which no one can control.
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 add or reduce value to your final painting. The fact is, you don't want problems, and finger joints only increase that risk of the wood falling apart in the future.
The glue used to bind finger joints is a water based adhesive and when that wood is exposed to high humidity environments, particularly with exterior walls, the glue joints can give-up. 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.

Nature is often hidden; sometimes overcome; seldom extinguished.
♦ Aristotle
Aristotle, one of the most influential philosophers in history, had an innate ability to keenly observe and make astute statements about the world around him. He believed that nature, in its purest form, was the essence of existence and the driving force behind all phenomena.
This insight serves as a profound reminder for us. In the realm of art, as in life, our innate nature, our raw creativity, can sometimes be overshadowed by external influences or self-imposed boundaries. We might feel pressured to conform to current trends or to the expectations of others. Yet, as artists, we understand that our true essence, much like nature, can be subdued but never truly eradicated. By tapping into this inexhaustible reservoir of creativity within us, we can produce artworks that are not only authentic but also timeless. This sentiment encourages us to stay true to our authentic selves and to realize that, no matter the external challenges, our artistic spirit is indomitable.
To enhance your creative exploration of our site, we offer the insightful wisdom of Aristotle, our interpretation, and little one-of-a-kind portrait that we created. Now go paint!
