I value those artists who embody the expression of their life. ♦ Wassily Kandinsky

Wassily Kandinsky's fascination with color was not a mere whim; it was rooted in his deep-seated belief that colors held transformative abilities. Born in Moscow and eventually settling in Germany, Kandinsky's experiences were vast, ranging from law and economics to the deep dives into art that would define his legacy. Music, in particular the symphonies of composers like Wagner and Schoenberg, had a profound effect on him. He saw parallels between the evocative nature of musical notes and the emotional pull of colors. In this intertwining of senses, known as synesthesia, Kandinsky believed that just as a note could stir the heart, a color could move the soul.

When selecting palettes for our works, we're not merely choosing for aesthetics but for the emotional impact these colors can have on an observer. Kandinsky's insight reminds us that with each brushstroke, we have the opportunity to reach deep into the souls of those who engage with our work. And so, armed with this knowledge, we wield our brushes not just with skill, but with an understanding of the deeper connections that color can forge.

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.
