Tight'n'Up™ Liquid Canvas Retensioner

Stretching your own canvas is a great way to have complete command of the process from start to finish. Once your canvas is fully stretched, and if you notice any puckers or loosely tensioned areas, or perhaps even slight waves, you can always rely upon Tight'n'Up™ Liquid Canvas Retensioner to correct any inconsistencies in the canvas tension. You 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.

Diseases of the soul are more dangerous and more numerous than those of the body. ♦ Cicero

In the ancient world, Cicero's wisdom was lauded not just for its eloquence but for the profound truths he uncovered about the human experience. His observation on the complexities of the human soul vis-ˆ-vis the physical body reveals a deep understanding of inner turmoil and mental strife. While bodily ailments can be acute, often with visible symptoms and tangible treatments, the afflictions of the soul are nebulous, harder to diagnose, and even more challenging to remedy.

For many artists, this sentiment strikes a chord. In the creation of art, we often grapple with internal battlesÑdoubt, fear, creative blocks, and the weight of external expectations. These invisible hurdles can be more paralyzing than any physical obstacle. Yet, it's through our art that we find a means to heal, to express, and to communicate those very struggles. By channeling our innermost feelings into our work, we not only find solace but also offer a beacon to others who may be navigating similar challenges. Thus, in understanding and acknowledging the vulnerabilities of our soul, we, as artists, find strength and unity.
