10x10 3D Pro Vintage L21C Canvas 3-1/2" #TO-1010

True 1:1 Square Proportion - 10x10 Size

10x10 is one of our most desirable square sizes.

The square is perhaps the most intriguing proportion, as it is root of all of the other proportions. It is commonly used in both photography and art. Squares are typically used as the center canvas of a triptych or as a single canvas hung at a 45° angle. The square proportion is long used with medium format professional cameras, and most photographs we see on websites and social media are based on square images. Since all sides of the canvas are the same length, your eye is drawn evenly across the surface of the painting creating a sense of harmony, balance, and a generally a pleasing visual experience. The square format is also a good choice for artists who focus on geometric shapes or patterns in their work, as the regularity of the square shape can help reinforce these elements. Some artists enjoy the challenge of working within the confines of a square format, as it forces them to think creatively resulting in intriguing compositions.

3D™ Pro 3.5 Stretcher 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.

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.

We must accept life for what it actually is — a challenge to our quality without which we should never know of what stuff we are made, or grow to our full stature. ♦ Robert Delaunay

At the heart of Robert Delaunay's statement lies a profound understanding of human potential and the transformative power of challenges. Delaunay, whose life was characterized by his ceaseless drive to innovate and reinvent the realm of art, knew all too well the value of adversity. Challenges, he posits, serve as mirrors, reflecting our strengths, our vulnerabilities, and the vast reservoirs of untapped potential within.

For us, challenges are not just external obstacles but internal provocations urging us to redefine boundaries and shatter perceived limitations. Like the canvas that beckons an artist to express, life invites us to engage, to wrestle, and to emerge with a deeper understanding of ourselves. It's through this dance with adversity that we discover the nuances of our craft, honing skills and cultivating resilience. Embracing life's challenges, in all its unpredictable twists and turns, is integral to our growth, pushing us to ascend to new artistic heights and to recognize the depths of our own capabilities.
