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.

Don't be an art critic, but paint, there lies salvation. ♦ Paul Cézanne

Paul Cézanne, a post-impressionist master whose influence extended far beyond his lifetime, held a fervent belief in the transformative power of creating art. He was well-acquainted with the weight of external opinions, having faced ample criticism throughout his career. Cézanne's advice serves as a clarion call to artists: to immerse themselves fully in the act of creation, undeterred by the inevitable critique that follows.

It's easy to get lost in the labyrinth of feedback and reviews, often allowing the voices of others to overshadow our own. But Cézanne encourages us to find solace and redemption in our art. He reminds us that while constructive criticism can be beneficial, it's the act of painting, the communion between the artist and the medium, that truly defines our path. By heeding his words, we can navigate our art careers with a renewed focus, letting the essence of our creativity shine through, untouched by the clamor of outside opinions.
