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.

Let's go to Tahiti! But not to sketch, we'll go just to be there. ♦ Paul Gauguin

Paul Gauguin's exclamation about Tahiti captures more than just a desire to escape to an exotic location. It embodies a deep yearning to immerse oneself in an environment, to experience it fully, rather than merely observe it from an outsider's perspective. Tahiti, for Gauguin, wasn't just a place; it was a state of mind, an opportunity to be free from societal constraints and to embrace a different way of living and seeing.

We often seek inspiration from the world around us. We travel, we observe, we immerse ourselves in different cultures, hoping to find that spark. Yet, Gauguin's words remind us that sometimes, it's essential to simply be present. Not every experience needs to be captured, sketched, or painted. Some moments are meant just for us, to be felt and lived. In our fast-paced art careers, taking the time to truly immerse ourselves in our surroundings without the pressure of creating can refresh our perspectives and reinvigorate our passion.
