10x15 Vincent Pro Torrey Pines Canvas 7/8 Inch Deep #VTP-1015

True 3:2 Film Proportion - 10x15 Size

The 3:2 aspect ratio is a very familiar format film, computer screens, and video, and, of course, is an aesthetically appealing proportion for your artistic compositions. Most 35 mm film cameras are based on this exact proportion, so our brains are trained to see images in this same ratio. It is commonly used for landscape photography and artwork, as it allows for a wide, panoramic view of the scene. It can be used to create a sense of balance and harmony in the composition, providing depth and perspective, as the longer sides of the canvas allow for more space to depict the background or foreground elements of the scene.

Even though this proportion is widely used, there are only a handful of commonly available standard canvas sizes in this ratio. There are a whole collection of intriguing (what we call) Lost Sizes, which are uncommon sizes in this common proportion. Unusual canvas sizes add intrigue to your artwork and an additional story to tell about your painting.

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

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.

10x15 Vincent Pro Keyable Fame

• Drawing depicts the exact frame construction, not the proportion
• Precision machined medium duty keyable tongue-and-groove Stretcher Bars
• No cross braces required when the frame length is under 16"
• Frame is very sturdy and provides a solid support for this 10x15 size frame
• To increase canvas tension, remove any staples in the corners, then tap-in the included corner keys further into their slots, then re-staple the canvas

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.

MuseumWrap™ Stretching Technique

With more than 60 years of American engineering, Masterpiece® designs and builds its own proprietary stretching equipment that enables us to produce the finest and most tightly-stretched canvas on the market.

• Drum-tight stretch!
• Up to 50% tighter than other methods
• Balanced tension across the surface
• Uncut folded corners make it possible to remove and re-stretch canvas on the same size frame
• Usually the corner folds are on the long sides

Since 1965, our passion for perfection has driven us at Masterpiece® to construct professional quality canvases that artists around the nation desire. All too often, other brands are more focused on saving cost and delivering less than adequate quality. However, we find that our customers not only desire fine quality, but they also tell us that their art is better for having painted on the exquisite canvases that we produce.

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.
