I need to work to feel well. ♦ Edouard Manet

Edouard Manet, a luminary of the art world, understood the profound connection between artistic creation and personal well-being. His career serves as a testament to the idea that art isn't merely a vocation but a path to inner solace. Manet's artistic endeavors were deeply rooted in his quest for self-expression and fulfillment, and his statement resonates with the collective heart of artists.

Manet's struggle with health issues throughout his life heightened his awareness of the healing power of art. We often find ourselves grappling with doubt, insecurity, and external pressures. Manet's words remind us that in those moments, channeling our creative energy into our work can provide solace and a sense of purpose. It's a reminder that the act of creation itself can be a source of well-being, helping us navigate the turbulent seas of artistic existence. Just as Manet's work continues to inspire and enrich our lives, we, too, can find our own equilibrium through the act of creating art.

Creativity is a dance between inspiration and innovation. Our own self portrait creation of Edouard Manet twirls alongside these profound words, hoping to set the stage for your next artistic performance. Now go do your dance on the canvas!

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.
