To have the respect of such men as these gives any man an untouchable armor against the world. ♦ Robert Henri

Robert Henri, a prominent figure of the Ashcan School, was more than familiar with the weight that validation carries in an artist's life. His words highlight the profound impact of recognition, especially when it comes from those we deeply admire. In the realms of art, where subjectivity reigns supreme and criticism is ever-present, the acknowledgment from peers or mentors can fortify an artist's confidence and serve as a beacon during tumultuous times.

For artists, the path is often filled with both acclaim and rebuke. But when those whom we hold in high esteem recognize our endeavors, it provides a shield, an affirmation that our direction, however unorthodox or challenging, is valid. This recognition, however, shouldn't solely be a source of pride; it should also inspire us. As artists, we have the responsibility to support and uplift others, to be the beacon for those coming up behind us. In doing so, we not only enrich our own experiences but also fortify the collective strength and resilience of our community.

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.
