Vegan Ground:

There are no animal products that make-up the sizing and the primer for this fine canvas. Historically, traditional canvas grounds have included egg tempura, pigments with cow urine, and of course, rabbit skin glue. In today's rapidly advancing world, there are many more choices available for artists who prefer non-animal based products that perform far better than their animal-based predecessors.

Titanium Dioxide (TiO₂) Primer Pigment

This primer contains premium-grade Titanium Dioxide (TiO₂) white pigment, renowned for its exceptional performance in acrylic priming. Its standout feature is its enduring whiteness, coupled with remarkable flexibility that persists over time. In contrast to other pigments such as zinc dioxide, Titanium Dioxide maintains its resilience, preventing brittleness as it ages. This quality ensures that artworks retain their integrity and will stand the test of time.

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.

Sometimes I miss out the morning's painting session and instead study my Japanese books in the open. ♦ Gustav Klimt

One of the most celebrated figures of the Art Nouveau movement, Gustav Klimt was not just a painter but a voracious learner who drew inspiration from diverse cultures and artistic disciplines. This quote offers a glimpse into Klimt's penchant for curiosity, reminding us of the importance of broadening horizons and seeking inspiration beyond our immediate surroundings.

While it might seem unconventional for an artist of Klimt's stature to step away from the canvas to indulge in a completely different form of art, this habit reveals a crucial aspect of artistic growth: the significance of interdisciplinary learning. Just as Klimt immersed himself in Japanese literature, we, too, can enrich our perspectives and artworks by delving into diverse fields of study and absorbing knowledge from varied sources.

The world around us is teeming with inspiration, waiting to be captured and transformed into art. Klimt's approach reminds us that sometimes, stepping away from our primary medium and venturing into unknown territories can offer fresh insights, ideas, and invigorate our creative spirit. It's in these moments of exploration and openness that we find unexpected avenues, shaping our path as artists in ways we could never have imagined.
