Vegan Ground:

There are no animal products that make-up the sizing and the primer for this fine canvas. Historically, traditional canvas grounds have included egg tempura, pigments with cow urine, and of course, rabbit skin glue. In today's rapidly advancing world, there are many more choices available for artists who prefer non-animal based products that perform far better than their animal-based predecessors.

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.

He who wishes to be rich within a day, will be hanged within a year. ♦ Leonardo da Vinci

Leonardo da Vinci, the unparalleled genius of the Renaissance, was not merely a painter but also a scientist, inventor, and philosopher. His wisdom permeated his work, both on canvas and in his voluminous notebooks filled with observations about the world. This particular proclamation reveals his astute understanding of human nature and the perils of unchecked ambition.

In the artistic realm, the pursuit of quick success or recognition can be tantalizing. Yet, as da Vinci wisely notes, such hasty ambitions often come with unforeseen consequences. For us, as artists, it's a call to embrace patience, dedication, and authentic growth. The path to true mastery and genuine appreciation is rarely a sprint but a consistent and mindful trek. Our work becomes richer, deeper, and more resonant when it emerges from genuine passion and commitment rather than the mere thirst for immediate accolades or financial rewards. In heeding da Vinci's warning, we're reminded to value the process, recognizing that the richest rewards are often borne from time, effort, and heartful investment.

Tight'n'Up™ Liquid Canvas Retensioner

While all of our Masterpiece® Pro canvases are stretched very tightly and our frames have a built-in method to increase tension, we have another method to add canvas tension. Tight'n'Up™ Liquid Canvas Retensioner (sold separately) can be sprayed on the back of a canvas to repair most canvas tension issues.

With Tight'n'Up™, you can add tension to just a small area, or a large area. Simply spray it lightly on the back and brush it into the canvas, and within seconds, your canvas becomes tighter and stays tighter. The more you use, the tighter it gets.
