True 5:4 Photography Proportion - 8x10 Size
And 8x10, of course, is one of the most popular sizes ever in both photography and art!
The 5:4 aspect ratio is common to both art and portrait photography, as it creates a visually pleasing format for the human figure and face. The balanced compositional format can help to create a sense of symmetry and harmony in your artwork. The 5:4 ratio has a familiar "feel", as it was commonly used in early computer monitors. Additionally, you might consider trying some relatively unknown sizes in this same proportion that we call Lost Sizes As an artist, you get the best of both worlds, because you still get to use the same aesthetically appealing 5:4 format and use rare or novel sizes that help make your art stand-out.
Explore other sizes in this same 5:4 aspect ratio:
4x5 • 16x20 • 24x30 • 12x15 • 20x25 • 28x35 • 32x40 • 40x50 • 36x45

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.

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.

Light is the true architect, shaping everything.
♦ Robert Delaunay
Robert Delaunay, a figure distinguished by his relentless exploration of light and color, held an unwavering belief in light's transformative power. His commitment to Cubism and later Orphism showcased his fascination with how light interacts with surfaces, reshaping our perceptions and emotions. He observed the world through prisms of color, understanding that light, in its myriad manifestations, held the key to visual truth.
This insight serves as a poignant reminder of the ephemeral and powerful nature of light. It not only illuminates our subjects but sculpts, defines, and breathes life into them. Whether capturing a fleeting moment on canvas or sculpting an intricate piece, we realize that light plays an integral role, often acting as an unseen hand guiding our creations. Delaunay's perspective encourages us to study, harness, and appreciate this indispensable force, allowing it to refine our work and elevate our artistic narratives.
With a nod to Robert Delaunay, we present these words of wisdom and our own custom crafted portrait. Let this fusion stoke your creative fires. Dive into your art!
