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 true purpose of the painter is to reflect the higher spiritual side in his art, not the world of the senses. ♦ George Inness

George Inness, renowned for his atmospheric landscapes that straddle the line between realism and abstraction, believed in the transcendent potential of art. His emphasis on the higher spiritual side is a nod to the ineffable nature of the artistic process. While the world around us offers a myriad of tangible inspirations, Inness suggests that it is the intangible, the spiritual, that should be the true compass guiding an artist's hand.

In the busy art studios and workshops, artists often find themselves navigating the balance between the seen and the unseen. The tangible world provides form, color, and structure. But it is in channeling the ethereal, the emotions and insights that are felt more than they are seen, that we give our creations soul. By tapping into this spiritual realm, we not only elevate our work but also invite our audience to connect with the deeper truths and emotions that art can evoke. In doing so, we offer a respite from the sensory overload of the modern world and a chance to connect with something profound and timeless.
