I am a marching artist, and my cry of battle is the battle of art. Art will be all or nothing. ♦ Emile Zola

Emile Zola, a luminary in the world of literature, consistently demonstrated unyielding passion for realism and social transformation. His fierce devotion to art's power reflected not only in his writings but also in his fierce advocacy for justice, most notably during the Dreyfus affair. Zola's assertion that he is a marching artist captures the essence of an individual who refuses to remain static, always pushing forward, challenging the status quo, and advocating for change through art.

Such a fervent declaration is not just about Zola's personal commitment but serves as a beacon for artists everywhere. The message is clear: in our creative pursuits, we must be unwavering, unyielding, and uncompromising. When we dedicate ourselves to art, it demands our complete commitment, becoming an all or nothing endeavor. This fervor, this battle cry, is what distinguishes the truly great from the merely good. For artists, it prompts reflection on the depth of our commitment to our craft and the lengths we are willing to go to ensure its prominence and impact. Just as Zola marched for his beliefs, we too march onward, championing the transformative power of art in our world.

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.
