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.

One can't paint New York as it is, but rather as it is felt. ♦ George Inness

George Inness's statement reflects a sentiment shared by many artists who have tried to capture the essence of a place or moment. New York, a city of towering skyscrapers, bustling streets, and diverse cultures, is not just an assemblage of buildings and people. It is an emotion, a sensation, a whirlwind of experiences that can't be pinned down by mere lines and colors.

When artists attempt to depict such a dynamic entity, it becomes imperative to go beyond the obvious. It's about capturing the pulse, the energy, the very soul of the city. Just as Inness painted landscapes imbued with atmospheric emotions, when it comes to places like New York, we, too, must delve deep into our personal experiences and feelings. It's not just about reproducing a skyline or a street corner but evoking the memories, sounds, and sensations that define it for us. It's a reminder that art is not mere replication; it's a reflection of our internal landscapes and the myriad ways in which we interact with the world around us.
