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.

A work of art which did not begin in emotion is not art. ♦ Paul Cézanne

Paul Cézanne, a post-impressionist master known for bridging the gap between Impressionism and Cubism, lived by this statement. Art was an embodiment of raw, human emotion. Born in the mid-19th century, his experiences, struggles, and breakthroughs in his path as an artist became evident through the dynamism and intensity of his paintings. Understanding his proclamation takes us to the heart of why we create. Our canvases, brushes, and colors are merely tools. What makes our creations resonate is the emotional energy we infuse into each stroke.

This sentiment rings true, especially in today's fast-paced digital age. While techniques and tools evolve, the core essence of what makes art truly impactful remains unchanged - emotion. We pour our very souls into our creations, allowing our feelings, experiences, and worldviews to flow onto the canvas. And just like Cézanne's post-impressionist landscapes and still lifes, our works become timeless testaments to our innermost emotions and experiences.
