Historically, traditional canvas grounds have included egg tempura, pigments with cow urine, and of course, rabbit skin glue.

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
Finger Jointed Wood is not meant for Stretcher Bars
Solid wood makes the most dependable Stretcher Bar, because one homogeneous wood member is going to behave similarly across the entire length of the Bar. Whereas, with finger-jointed wood is made-up of multiple pieces of wood, sometimes on the actual joint itself, presenting multiple points of failure which no one can control.
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 add or reduce value to your final painting. The fact is, you don't want problems, and finger joints only increase that risk of the wood falling apart in the future.
The glue used to bind finger joints is a water based adhesive and when that wood is exposed to high humidity environments, particularly with exterior walls, the glue joints can give-up. 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.

Impressionism is the newspaper of the soul.
♦ Henri Matisse
A luminary in the world of modern art, Henri Matisse belonged to a time of great artistic experimentation and transformation. A contemporary of the Impressionists, though not strictly one himself, Matisse was well-acquainted with the radical changes that were shaking the foundations of art in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. His observation about Impressionism reveals a deep appreciation for the movement's revolutionary nature and its ability to capture the ephemeral essence of a moment.
Impressionism, as the name suggests, sought to capture impressions rather than detailed representations. Like a newspaper that delivers the latest events of the day, Impressionist works conveyed fleeting moments, moods, and atmospheres. This approach mirrored the fast-paced changes of the time, a world rapidly evolving due to urbanization and technological advancements. For artists, this was a way to connect more intimately with their surroundings, translating their immediate feelings and sensations onto the canvas. We, too, in our creative endeavors, often seek to encapsulate our raw emotions, striving for authenticity over perfection.
Matisse's comparison serves as a testament to the transformative power of art. Just as newspapers chronicle the events that shape our world, art captures the spirit and soul of its time. Whether we are painters, sculptors, or creators of any kind, we contribute to the ever-evolving narrative of human experience, creating our own headlines with every stroke, cut, and mold.
Draw inspiration from the words of wisdom by Henri Matisse, plus our interpretation of its meaning, along with our own rendered portrait of Henri Matisse. Now get busy on your own canvas!
Tight'n'Up™ Liquid Canvas Retensioner
While all of our Masterpiece® Pro canvases are stretched very tightly and our frames have a built-in method to increase tension, we have another method to add canvas tension. Tight'n'Up™ Liquid Canvas Retensioner (sold separately) can be sprayed on the back of a canvas to repair most canvas tension issues.
With Tight'n'Up™, you can add tension to just a small area, or a large area. Simply spray it lightly on the back and brush it into the canvas, and within seconds, your canvas becomes tighter and stays tighter. The more you use, the tighter it gets.
