6x14 Monet Pro Santa Cruz Canvas 1-1/2" Deep #MZ-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.

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.

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

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.

Our greatest evils flow from ourselves. ♦ Jean-Jacques Rousseau

Jean-Jacques Rousseau, an Enlightenment thinker whose writings have shaped the course of political and philosophical thought, often examined the intrinsic nature of humanity. His observations on society and the individual compelled him to recognize that the roots of many of our problems are internal rather than external. It's a reflection of the human condition, the duality of our capacity for both profound goodness and undeniable harm.

In the context of art and creativity, this sentiment encourages introspection. As artists, we are in a perpetual dialogue with ourselves, our experiences, and our emotions. Often, our harshest critic is not the audience or the world at large, but the voice inside our heads. The barriers, self-doubt, or perceived inadequacies that might hinder our expression often stem from within. However, by acknowledging these inner challenges, we can harness them, turning them into powerful narratives or explorations in our work. Just as Rousseau suggests that understanding our nature can lead to better societal structures, recognizing our internal struggles can lead to profound artistic breakthroughs.
