Woody

Behold the wonder of my 10th grade woodwork education. I just built my first canvas having spent the morning in the woodshop cutting the timber down to size and screwing it together.


There were a few snafus. I double drilled the short lengths of wood instead of the long planks on two instances, which is a habit that I'm going to have to very quickly break. And I had to iron some creases out of the canvas (which I just stretched). I hate ironing.

I'm going to apply some gesso right now and then try and get started on the actual painting sometime this afternoon/evening.
