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.

6x8 Monet Pro Strainer Frame

• Drawing depicts the exact frame construction, not the proportion
• Strainer Bars are used when the short side is under 10" inches
• Fixed Corner Frame - Not keyable or expandable
• No cross braces required when the frame length is under 20", but this frame provides very robust and solid support for this 6x8 size frame

For me, sorrow is the most fertile soil. . Out of it springs the strongest and the most inwardly concentrated art. ♦ Paul Gauguin

Paul Gauguin's life was a tapestry of emotional intensities, filled with moments of both elation and profound sorrow. He left his family in France, seeking an environment in Tahiti that could inspire him artistically. This sacrifice was undoubtedly painful, a sentiment reflected in many of his works. Despite the beauty of the landscapes and people he painted, a haunting melancholy pervades his pieces, revealing the depth of his emotional experience.

Sorrow, as Gauguin suggests, can be a powerful motivator and muse. When we confront our pain and channel it into our work, the art we create often achieves a depth and authenticity that might elude us in more carefree moments. It is in the depths of sorrow that our emotions become sharp, clear, and vivid. Through art, we find a way to communicate these feelings, sharing our experiences and connecting deeply with our audience. Like Gauguin, we recognize that the most compelling art often emerges from our most challenging experiences, becoming a testament to both our vulnerabilities and our strengths.
