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.

14x18 Monet Pro Keyable Fame

• Drawing depicts the exact frame construction, not the proportion
• Precision machined heavy duty keyable tongue-and-groove Stretcher Bars
• No cross braces required when the frame length is under 20", but this frame provides robust support for this 14x18 size
• To increase canvas tension, remove any staples in the corners, then tap-in the included corner keys further into their slots, then re-staple the canvas

With more than a half a century of American engineering, Masterpiece® designs and builds its own proprietary stretching equipment that enables us to produce the finest and most tightly-stretched canvas on the market.

• Usually the corner folds are on the long sides

Don't skimp on your material choices! Your legacy and your own brand will be judged by how well your artwork stands the test of time.

Faith in oneself is the best and safest course. ♦ Michelangelo

Michelangelo, a towering figure in the world of art, often navigated tumultuous terrains of self-doubt, criticism, and monumental expectations. Yet, his unshakable belief in his vision and skills propelled him to create masterpieces that forever changed the course of art. For artists, belief in oneself can be a beacon in the murkiness of uncertainty. While external affirmations may come and go, our faith in our abilities is the anchor that keeps us steady. Like Michelangelo, we must recognize that trusting our inner voice is often the truest compass, guiding us toward our authentic expression.
