All good things are wild and free. ♦ Henry David Thoreau

An iconic transcendentalist, Henry David Thoreau was characterized by his deep appreciation for nature and his understanding of the profound connection between the human spirit and the wild. His life at Walden Pond remains a testament to his commitment to leading a simple life, surrounded by the raw beauty of nature. This perspective, distilled in the quote, offers a unique lens for artists. When we let our creativity roam unbridled, without the constraints of strict rules or rigid boundaries, we discover our truest expressions.

The notion of things being wild and free wasn't just about nature; it was about an intrinsic state of being, a purity that is untouched by societal demands or expectations. This resonates with us in our art careers. As artists, our most authentic work emerges when we liberate ourselves from external pressures and allow our inner wilderness to take the lead. By embracing this wildness within, we not only honor Thoreau's philosophy but also chart a path towards genuine and free artistic expression.

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.
