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.

The palette is a reflection of an artist's soul, every hue a different emotion. ♦ Paul Gauguin

Paul Gauguin, a figure of undeniable influence in the world of art, was not just a painter; he was a storyteller, a dreamer, and a revolutionary. Born in Paris but spending his early years in Peru, Gauguin's exposure to diverse cultures and traditions heavily impacted his perception of color and form. As artists, we too often find that our surroundings, experiences, and even our emotions profoundly influence our choices on the canvas. Gauguin's statement about the palette serves as a beautiful metaphor for this very phenomenon.

The intricate interplay of colors on our palettes isn't merely a selection of pigments; it's a narrative of our experiences, our joys, sorrows, aspirations, and even our fears. Every brushstroke we make is a testament to what we feel within, making our artwork not just a visual treat but a window into our very essence. This understanding aligns with Gauguin's own art career, which was characterized by a bold use of color and a profound sense of symbolism. His works were not just paintings but stories, emotions, and memories captured in color. It encourages us to embrace every emotion, every experience, and translate it onto our canvas, making our art a true reflection of who we are.
