True 1:1 Square Proportion - 14x14 Size

The 14x14 square size is a little less common but gaining in popularity.

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.

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.

Those who aim at great deeds must also suffer greatly. ♦ Plutarch

Embedded within Plutarch's rich legacy of biographies and essays is a wisdom that transcends epochs, offering insights as relevant to the ancient world as they are to modern times. A philosopher and historian, Plutarch navigated the realms of heroism, ambition, and human endeavor, documenting the highs and lows of figures who shaped the course of history. It's no surprise, then, that he keenly recognized the inextricable link between aspiration and adversity.

This connection is often palpable. Embracing a path of creative expression invariably invites challenges: the doubts that cloud our vision, the critiques that puncture our confidence, and the countless hours of refining and reworking that go unnoticed. But it's through these very challenges that our artistry evolves. As we brave the criticisms and navigate the disappointments, our resolve strengthens, and our work gains depth. Plutarch's observation urges us to remember that the weight of our struggles is a testament to the magnitude of our dreams. So, when the road gets rocky and the climb steepens, let's take solace in the knowledge that our endeavors, when met with persistence, have the potential to etch indelible imprints on the canvas of the world.


Creativity is a dance between inspiration and innovation. Our own self portrait creation of Plutarch twirls alongside these profound words, hoping to set the stage for your next artistic performance. Now go do your dance on the canvas!
