Titanium Dioxide (TiO₂) Primer Pigment

Our primer is made with the highest-quality Titanium Dioxide white pigment, which is an excellent pigment for acrylic primed grounds, providing superior whiteness and maintaining excellent flexibility over time. Unlike some other common pigments, such as zinc dioxide, TiO₂ doesn't become brittle as it ages, helping to ensure that your painting will stand the test of time.

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.

Try to paint the air. ♦ George Inness

At first glance, George Inness's instruction might seem intangible, almost abstract in nature. How does one capture the essence of something as elusive as air on canvas? Inness, with his transcendent approach to landscape painting, often sought to depict not just the tangible but the intangible, the moments and sensations that lie in the interstice of perception and reality.

Challenges like these invite a deeper engagement with our surroundings. It is not just about capturing a tree, a river, or a mountain, but the atmosphere, the light, and the very essence that surrounds and defines these elements. It's about translating the feeling of a dew-kissed morning or the haze of a humid afternoon. By attempting to paint the air, we immerse ourselves more profoundly in our environment, allowing our perceptions to guide our brush strokes. In the pursuit of this elusive goal, we uncover new layers of our craft and push the boundaries of what is conceivable in art.
