The true use of art is, first, to cultivate the artist's own spiritual nature. ♦ George Inness

Creating art is not just about producing visually appealing pieces; it's a transformative journey that allows us to explore the depths of our own souls. In the process of crafting our work, we tap into our emotions, memories, and experiences, channeling them onto the canvas. It's a means of self-discovery and self-expression, much like a spiritual quest.

Inness's words remind us that our artistic endeavors are not separate from our spiritual growth. They are intertwined, each stroke of the brush or movement of the hand helping us understand ourselves a little better. So, as we artists embark on our creative journeys, let us remember that our art is a path toward self-enlightenment, a way to cultivate our own spiritual nature, and a means to share our inner worlds with the outer one.

Through art, we not only connect with the world around us but also with the depths of our being. Inness's wisdom guides us, encouraging us to embrace the transformative power of our craft, as we explore the boundless realms of our own spiritual nature.

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.
