Monet™ Pro 1.5" Deep B2 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
• 2-1/4" 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.

Every good painter paints what he is. ♦ Rembrandt van Rijn

Rembrandt van Rijn, a titan of the art world, was not just revered for his mastery over technique but also for his profound ability to infuse his work with his essence. The Dutch artist, renowned for his portraits and self-portraits, often captured not just the visage but the very soul of his subjects. The sentiment expressed in his quote is a testament to this, underlining the profound connection between an artist's identity and their creations.

Our works are not just depictions or representations, they are extensions of our beings, reflections of our perspectives, experiences, and emotions. They are manifestations of our internal dialogues, our fears, our hopes, our dreams. And just as Rembrandt's works gave the world glimpses into his soul, our works offer insights into ours. By sharing these deeply personal parts of us, we not only engage in a dialogue with our audience but also navigate the complexities of our own identities.
