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.

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.

♦ Paul Gauguin
Paul Gauguin's life was characterized by a relentless quest for authenticity, and this quote encapsulates that yearning for artistic freedom. Despite achieving some acclaim in the Parisian art scene, Gauguin left behind the comforts of Europe, venturing to far-flung places like Tahiti, seeking a deeper truth in his art. He believed that, as artists, we should avoid being confined by expectations, be they our own or those of the outside world.
In the ever-evolving realm of art, there's a subtle danger in complacency. Falling into a comfortable pattern can be tempting, especially when it brings us validation or success. But Gauguin challenges us to break free from these invisible chains. Our path should be marked by exploration and evolution, not by the boundaries of past achievements. It is in this spirit of relentless innovation and self-challenge that we find our truest expressions, unburdened by the weight of what has been and driven by the potential of what could be.
Creativity is everything to us artists, so while you bring canvases to life, we've breathed digital life into a likeness we made of Paul Gauguin, and provide a quote and context to inspire your art. Together, our creations honor the past, present, and future of artistry. Start spreading some paint around your own canvas!
