10x30 Monet Pro Raw No 10 Canvas 1-1/2" Deep #MRT-1030

True 3:1 Panorama Proportion - 10x30 Size

This unique 10x30 is actually a fairly common 3:1 proportion used in art and cinema.

The 3:1 Panorama a proportion is preferred by many artists who require a super wide compositional format. Of course, this proportion is popularized by photographers and cinematographers, for ultra landscape and wide angled imagery that creates a sense of scope and grandeur in a scene, like cityscapes, ocean and mountain scenes, and scenes with expansive horizons. It is described as a polyomino proportion on the order of 3 or triple-square proportion. There are several common Panorama sizes in this 3:1 aspect ratio that you will recognize, and some are intriguing custom sizes, as well.

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

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.

10x30 Monet Pro Keyable Braced Frame

• Drawing depicts the exact frame construction, not the proportion
• Precision machined heavy duty keyable tongue-and-groove Stretcher Bars
• A 3/4" thick keyable brace (1.5" wide) provides sturdy support for this 10x30 size frame - Brace may be removed in reinserted at any time
• An exclusive slot is milled on the inside perimeter of the 30 Stretcher Bars to which the Brace and the expansion wedges attach
• Patented keyable brace allows the frame to be tensioned in the middle of the canvas, where the tension needed the most
• To increase canvas tension: 1) remove any staples in the corners and those that retain the brace keys in the middle, 2) tap all of the expansion keys further into their respective slots, 3) tighten and re-staple the canvas in the corners

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.

Know how to listen, and you will profit even from those who talk badly. ♦ Plutarch

The wisdom embedded in Plutarch's writings often transcends the confines of time and culture, providing insights that resonate deeply with various facets of human existence. This particular sentiment captures the essence of a powerful life skill: the art of attentive listening.

In the realm of art, we are continuously presented with diverse opinions, critiques, and interpretations. Not all feedback will be constructive, and not every critic will articulate their thoughts with grace or clarity. Yet, within even the harshest or seemingly misguided critiques, there may be kernels of truth or new perspectives that can inform and enrich our work. Just as a sculptor finds beauty in a rough stone, we, too, can extract value from challenging feedback.

Embracing Plutarch's guidance can serve as a beacon for artists navigating their path. It reminds us of the potential growth that comes from genuine engagement, even in the face of adversity. By fostering an openness to all voices and honing our ability to discern the valuable from the vacuous, we fortify our artistry and cultivate a richer understanding of our craft and ourselves.
