Nine tenths of education is encouragement. ♦ Anatole France

Anatole France, a Nobel Prize-winning author, had an uncanny ability to distill vast and intricate ideas into succinct truths. His perspective on education was no exception. With a life that spanned a transformative era in French literature and politics, France recognized the power of fostering belief and confidence in the young and aspiring. He saw firsthand the rise of a new generation of writers, thinkers, and artists who often flourished not just from rigorous instruction but from the faith instilled in them by mentors and peers.

For artists, this sentiment rings especially true. The technical skills are undeniably essential, but it is the continued support, belief, and encouragement from those around us that often propels our growth. When faced with a blank canvas, the weight of expectation, or even self-doubt, it is the remembered words of encouragement that light our path. They remind us of our potential and the unique voice we bring to the world. So, to all artists, let's cherish the guidance and constructive critique, but equally value the encouragement we receive and offer it generously to others. By doing so, we foster an environment where the creative spirit isn't just nurtured—it thrives.

Celebrating the creativity in all of us, we've taken a step provide these words of wisdom and to immortalize Anatole France through our own unique portrait. Pick up your brush and create!

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.
