6x14 Monet Pro Ventura Canvas 1-1/2" Deep #MV-0614

True 7:3 Extended Domino Proportion - 6x14 Size

This 6x14 is a unique Masterpiece size and 7:3 Extended Domino aspect ratio.

The 7:3 aspect ratio brings a bold and dramatic horizontal stretch, perfect for wide compositions that need to feel expansive and open. This format pulls the eye across the canvas, making it ideal for landscapes, cityscapes, or any scene where horizontal flow is essential. The narrow vertical space adds a layer of complexity, requiring careful use of vertical elements to maintain balance without overwhelming the composition.

There’s a natural tension in this ratio. The wide format invites exploration of the edges, creating a sense of openness, while the limited height keeps the scene intimate and controlled. It’s a format that encourages you to emphasize sweeping gestures, long vistas, or minimalist abstractions. It's great for conveying motion, distance, or the vastness of a scene, all within a strikingly sleek frame.

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.

Oil paint on an oil primed canvas improves your results

Using an oil prepared canvas for oil painting can produce superior results because the paint and ground are organically similar and create an ideal "chemical bond" where the paint sinks into the ground resulting in a smoother and more even finish. The resulting bond between the paint and canvas is stronger, making the artwork more durable and long-lasting. Additionally, the melding of the two oil-based materials creates an effect called luminosity, where the colors appear to glow from within, and thereby enhances the vibrancy and brightness of the colors, impacting the way light reflects off the colors.

Lightly Wipe an Oil Prepared Canvas with Mineral Spirits

While it is not required, for best results, lightly wipe or flash the oil prepared canvas with mineral spirits before painting to make sure that your surface is completely clean of any dust or contaminants before painting.

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.

I had so much fire in me and so many plans.. ♦ Claude Monet

The luminary behind the birth of Impressionism, Claude Monet epitomized an artist fueled by passion and boundless ambitions. His masterpieces, marked by fleeting moments captured with swift brushstrokes, were a testament to his fiery drive and innovative vision. Yet, like the hint of an unfinished thought suggested by the ellipsis, Monet's statement speaks to the universal experience of artists everywhere—having a wellspring of ideas but feeling constrained by the limitations of time, resources, or circumstances.

Such sentiments echo within many of us, where dreams often exceed the capacity to fulfill them all. Yet, this very passion, this insatiable drive, propels our artistic evolution. It is in the chasm between aspiration and achievement where growth occurs. Every artwork, completed or not, becomes a stepping stone, shaping our path and refining our craft. And even if not all plans come to fruition, the fire within ensures that we, as artists, continue to dream, innovate, and inspire.
