• 1.5" wide Stretcher Bar

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.

The artist is the man who leaves the crowd and goes pioneering. ♦ Elbert Hubbard

Elbert Hubbard had a deep appreciation for the courage and individualism that characterized trailblazers. His life was characterized by a strong sense of purpose, leading him to found the Roycroft artisan community, which became a touchstone for the American Arts and Crafts movement. His perspective on the role of the artist was not merely confined to those who paint or sculpt; he recognized that an artist's spirit could be found in anyone who dared to step away from convention and carve a unique path.

Venturing into the unknown, we often find ourselves battling both external criticisms and our own internal doubts. Yet, it's in these moments of uncertainty that our most profound creations come to life. Artists constantly push boundaries, and in doing so, we not only shape the course of our art careers but also influence the world around us. The act of pioneering anything we might do, above anything else, requires believing in ourselves.

Hubbard's words underscores the importance of taking risks and forging our own paths. It's not just about creating beautiful pieces; it's about the relentless pursuit of truth, meaning, and innovation. While the destination may be uncertain, the reward of self-discovery and the impact we leave behind is immeasurable.
