6x24 Monet Pro Raw No 10 Canvas 1-1/2" Deep #MRT-0624

True 4:1 Super Panorama Proportion - 6x24 Size

This dramatic 6x24 size is in the 4:1 Aspect Ratio.

The 4:1 Super Panorama proportion has gained interest with a lot of artists, providing even a more dramatic and eye-catching compositional format. The unusual proportion provides the artist with a unique perspective with which to tell their story on canvas. This proportion is called a "polyomino proportion on the order of 4", or a linear tetromino object.

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 canvas (Actual depth is slightly thinner)
• 1-5/8" wide Stretcher Bar
• Frames with a dimension of 20" and up have a groove machined in the center inside perimeter to which cross braces attach
• 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.

6x24 Monet Pro Keyable Braced 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
• A 3/4" thick super strong keyable brace (1.5" wide) provides robust support for this 6x24 size frame - Brace may be removed in reinserted at any time
• An exclusive slot is milled on the inside perimeter of the 24 Stretcher Bars to which the Brace and the expansion wedges attach
• To increase canvas tension, remove any staples that retain the brace keys in the middle, then tap all of the expansion keys further into their respective slots

Canvas Tension is in Your Control

In dry climates or air conditioned environments, the lack of moisture in the air causes wood frames to shrink and the canvas fibers to narrow and elongate making the canvas more slack and resulting in a loss of canvas tension. In some instances, the canvas could have waves on the surface resulting in an unsightly viewing experience.

Our Monet™ Pro professional frames provide the functionality for you to slightly expand the size of the frame in the corners and the middle of the canvas, thereby increasing canvas tension all across the surface. The difference between a loose canvas and a tight canvas is just 1/8" of an inch, so a small adjustment using our corner and brace keys makes an important difference in canvas tension.

• Helps to prevent waves that occur in a loose canvas
• Increase canvas tension by tapping-in the corner and brace keys
• True professional class canvases make it possible for you to adjust the canvas tension

Cross Braces Make it Tighter

A tightly stretched canvas on an un-braced frame overpowers the Stretcher Bars causing them to bow inward and thereby lose tension. Sometimes that bow can expose a space in picture frames.

When a canvas is stretched on a properly supported frame, the cross-braces prevent the Bars from bowing thereby achieving maximum canvas tension. To increase the canvas tension even more, simply tap the corner and brace keys further in their slots. Properly supported frames provide you with the control over the canvas tension of your canvas and painting.

Sustainably Managed Forests Purify the Air

Our forests purify the air by filtering nearly 40% of the fossil fuel emissions humans create, and are critical to reducing global warming. More trees are needed on this planet, not fewer, for our own healthy human survival. Therefore, we use lumber grown in responsibly managed forests, so future generations can benefit from our responsible actions today.

Happiness is an angel with a serious face. ♦ Amadeo Modigliani

The enigmatic words of Amadeo Modigliani, a painter and sculptor known for his modernistic portrayals, carry an intensity that is hard to ignore. Modigliani, who led a tumultuous life filled with passion, hardship, and early tragedy, viewed happiness through a lens tempered by life's complexities. For him, joy was not a frivolous or fleeting emotion; it was profound, earnest, and often born from adversity.

Many artists can identify with this sentiment, understanding that genuine contentment often requires an intimate acquaintance with struggle. In the realm of art, our most compelling pieces are often those forged in the crucible of personal challenges and introspection. The duality of life Ð its joys and sorrows, its highs and lows Ð is what gives our work depth and resonance. As artists, we recognize that true happiness, like art, isn't superficial; it's a rich tapestry woven from myriad emotions, experiences, and the wisdom they impart.

The spirit of artistry is inspiration and creation. We too are inspired by the wisdom of this quote and hope you are inspired by our interpretation thereof, as well as this inimitable portrait we created of Amadeo Modigliani. Go create!
