The stretcher bar frame is a brilliant sophisticated frame that is used by canvas printing specialists. This type of frame had been getting used for many years now as it gives the best finish when stretching a canvas material over it called inkjet canvas. Inkjet canvas is also commonly used for canvas prints and canvas photo prints. The shape of the frame that you can achieve from stretcher bars would usually be rectangle although you can create square shapes and very long panoramic shapes which is why they are perfect for using when transferring digitally printed canvas to as they can accommodate any size needed for most modern large format canvas printers out there today. The stretcher bar frame is very easy to use as each side of one frame will have slots which is where you can slot each frame together, once they are all put together then you can add wedges to each corner which will provide tension for when your canvas print goes loose over time. Also with the stretcher bar frame the reason why they are so perfect for your usual modern day canvas print is that they have a bevelled edge on one side which is like a little bump and this raises the canvas of the frame and this is what the canvas would sit over when being stretched around the frame and get a tight tension and tight grip, by having this in place it allow air to pass through the inside of the canvas prints and makes it less likely to loss that stretch to. Also with it being raised like this you wouldn’t have to worry about the canvas getting marks over time around the edge of the canvas. This technique with using stretcher bar frames for art has been around in the art market for many years and with canvas photo prints becoming more and more popular it’s bringing the stretcher bar back to its fame. You will find that many artist will use the stretcher bar frame for their blank canvas which save them cost on buying the black canvas already built up as you can buy a roll of canvas and then buy some stretcher bars which will be more with wile in the long run but you will also find that many photographers use stretcher bar frames to for your own photos and many photographer will use canvas printing businesses to print there wonderful photo onto canvas prints for their clients to so you can really see a big benefit that the stretcher bar can bring into the art world and clearly is one the best type of professional wooden frame that should be used all the time when it comes to printing photos on to canvas. Not to mention if you do use this sort of frame with your canvas prints then you will see the benefit of a per longed stretch for a much longer period before having to tap the wedges or taking it back to a canvas printing specialist that can restretched it for you.
