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.

Painting is poetry that is seen rather than felt, and poetry is painting that is felt rather than seen. ♦ Leonardo da Vinci

A true polymath and a beacon of the Renaissance era, Leonardo da Vinci never shied away from drawing connections between varied disciplines. He masterfully delineates the profound link between the visual art of painting and the linguistic art of poetry. One cannot exist without the other.

Each brushstroke, the color, and composition tell a story that the eyes perceive. The story unfolds in silent appreciation, where the vision often evokes a deep emotional response. Poetry uses words as its brush strokes, painting vivid imagery in the minds of its readers. Though its canvas is the mind and not a physical medium, its impact is no less profound. Artists are acutely aware that emotions, experiences, and stories are conveyed on the canvas, each with its unique strength and resonance.

Leonardo's point is that art, in its many forms, transcends the boundaries of its medium. It touches the soul, evokes emotions, and communicates narratives in ways that are often ineffable. So, whether we pick up a brush or a pen, our goal remains the same: to express, to evoke, and to inspire. In doing so, pay tribute to the interconnectedness of all artistic or literary expression.
