Vincent™ Pro 7/8" Deep Bar • 5/16" Canvas Clearance

5/16" 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 7/8" deep stretched canvas
• 1.5" 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.

Sustainable Forests - A Precious Natural Resource

The air that we breathe depends upon our healthy forests the world over. For this reason, we only use lumber from the sustainable forests of the Pacific Northwest, so we can guarantee that our nation's precious natural timber resources are available for future generations.

The colors live a remarkable life of their own after they have been applied to the canvas. ♦ Edvard Munch

Edvard Munch, the creative force behind the haunting visage of The Scream, had an extraordinary ability to harness the raw power of emotions, rendering them with vivid hues on his canvases. For Munch, color wasn't merely a tool but a living entity. Once laid down, colors weren't static; they interacted, evolved, and told stories far more intricate than what the initial brushstroke intended.

In our art, we can relate to this sentiment. As we layer pigments and shapes, we often find that the artwork starts speaking back to us, taking on a life and narrative of its own. We begin with an idea, but the final piece may tell an entirely different tale. This organic evolution is a testament to the dynamic relationship between the artist and the medium. It's a dance of control and release, where the unpredictability of the colors and forms is both the challenge and the joy of our craft.
