You can be sprayed on the back of a canvas to repair most canvas tension issues.

All pictures painted inside, in the studio, will never be as good. ♦ Paul Cézanne

A mastermind of post-impressionism, Paul Cézanne is celebrated for his transformative approach to art, which laid the foundations for the transition from 19th-century artistic conventions to the unparalleled world of 20th-century modernism. With his vivid landscapes, often composed of Mont Sainte-Victoire, and still lifes bursting with life, he captured nature's essence like few others.

This sentiment about the limitations of the studio reflects Cézanne's deep reverence for nature. He believed that to truly capture the vibrancy and spirit of a subject, an artist needed to immerse themselves in it. Outdoor painting, or en plein air, was not merely a choice but a necessity for him. While studios provide a controlled environment, nature offers unpredictability, a myriad of shifting colors, and an ever-changing play of light and shadow. As artists, when we position ourselves amidst these elements, we not only observe but also feel and live the scene, allowing us to represent it with more authenticity and vitality.

For Cézanne, the outside world was a symphony, and every brushstroke was an effort to capture its melody. His words serve as a timeless reminder for us, highlighting the value of stepping out of our comfort zones and confronting our subjects in their raw, unfiltered beauty. While studios have their merits, there's an undeniable magic in embracing the world in its entirety, absorbing its hues, its moods, and its spirit.
