I am enough of an artist to draw freely upon my imagination. ♦ Albert Einstein

Albert Einstein, celebrated for his revolutionary theories in physics, was a polymath who recognized the deep interconnectedness between science and art. While the world often distinguishes between logic and creativity, Einstein defied such categorizations. He saw the act of theorizing as an art form, where imagination wasn't merely a luxury but a necessity. In his youth, he was an avid violinist, often drawing parallels between musical harmony and the elegance of physical laws.

For artists, Einstein's assertion is empowering. It reassures that the free play of imagination isn't just the realm of traditional arts, but is fundamental to every pioneering thought, be it in art, science, or any other discipline. In drawing upon his imagination, Einstein changed our understanding of the universe, just as artists do in reshaping our perception of reality.

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.
