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.
9x12 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 9x12 size frame
Sustainably Managed Forests
We use lumber grown in the sustainable forests of the Oregon, Washington, and California, where there’s more standing timber today than last century! Our forests purify the air, provide oxygen, and reduce global warming. More trees are needed on this planet, not fewer. Therefore, we use lumber grown in responsibly managed forests, so future generations can benefit from our collective responsible actions today.

♦ Artemisia Gentileschi
Artemisia Gentileschi, one of the most prominent female painters of the Baroque era, faced more than her fair share of trials and tribulations. Born in a period when women artists were seldom acknowledged, Gentileschi's tenacity and unwavering commitment to her craft set her apart. This simple yet profound declaration emphasizes the essence of her spirit and the solitude of her artistic endeavor.
Against a backdrop of societal constraints and personal adversities, Gentileschi carved out a space for herself in a male-dominated art world. She tackled powerful biblical and historical themes, distinguishing herself with her vivid representations of female strength and suffering. Her words serve as a stark reminder of the challenges artists face, even today. As artists, we understand the intense labor, both physical and emotional, that goes into each creation. We relate to her sentiment, feeling the weight of our own experiences and appreciating the sacrifices made in the name of art. Her story reinforces the notion that, regardless of the odds, passion and determination can pave the way to greatness.
Celebrating the creativity in all of us, we've taken a step provide these words of wisdom and to immortalize Artemisia Gentileschi through our own unique portrait. Pick up your brush and create!
