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.

- 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 7x12 size frame

♦ Robert Henri
A key figure in American art, Robert Henri not only painted but also inspired countless individuals with his profound understanding of artistry. His belief that art is more than just a vocation, but a way of life, shaped his career and teachings. He saw artistry as a spark, an inner force that could transform anyone into a vessel of creativity. For Henri, the essence of an artist was not limited to the confines of a studio or the strokes of a brush, but was an expansive and encompassing spirit.
Henri's insight is as relevant today as it was during his time. In all of us, there lies the potential to embrace this artistic spirit, regardless of our chosen profession. Whether we are writers, musicians, designers, or even in fields not traditionally associated with art, we can harness this creative energy. We must recognize and nurture this potential; as artists, we have the power to innovate, explore new horizons, and express our deepest emotions and ideas. This perspective allows us to see the world with fresh eyes and approach challenges with a renewed sense of purpose and ingenuity.
Creativity is the heart of what we both do. So we've curated this empowering quote and some background. And, in our own act of creation, we provide this unique portrayal we made of Robert Henri.
