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.

I lack the magnificent richness of color that animates nature. ♦ Paul Cézanne

Paul Cézanne, a true pioneer and master of post-impressionism modern art, left us with this introspective quote that strikes a chord with artists like us. Cézanne's art captures the essence of nature and a deep exploration of color. He is best known for his landscapes, still lifes, and portraits, which often featured geometric shapes and a unique approach to color. His works, such as The Card Players and Mont Sainte-Victoire, reveal his fascination with the interplay of light and shadow, as well as his quest to replicate the vibrant hues of the natural world.

When Cézanne admitted, I lack the magnificent richness of color that animates nature, he acknowledged the eternal challenge that artists face: translating the awe-inspiring beauty of the world onto canvas. His words serve as a reminder that even the most accomplished artists are humbled by nature's splendor. As artists, we share in Cézanne's quest to express the essence of color and light, constantly striving to convey the profound richness of the world around us through our art. Cézanne's legacy inspires us to embrace this challenge with humility and unwavering dedication, knowing that each stroke of our brush or pencil brings us closer to nature's magnificent palette.
