Un-Stretching Canvases

To save on space when traveling tonSan Diego. I am un-stretching some canvases. That way they fit I'm my car. I'm just going to roll them up and go. 

I did way to good of a job stretching these. Taking way too long. 

Ya'll Should Be Afraid Of What I'm Goin' Do Next

I finished another skateboard. Amongst working on other drawings and paintings this evening. Finally getting to bed. 

Lowbrow turned into highbrow art. 

Stretcher Makin

Art kid stuff. This is how you make your own badass stretcher in an hour. 46 x 51 in. With Ashley Warner. Commission piece. The Home Depot is a great place. 

Cut our beveled edge.  

The corners are important. 

Finished. For now. We might go back and add another brace. 

More Art Time.

It rained really hard today. So being inside and working in the studio seemed perfect. Ashley stretched her canvas. And she's ready to rock. 

So I went back and added corner braces. And the top and bottom brace In the middle. It's solid as he'll. 

Then Ashley stretched her canvas around  that bad boy. And she painted "tighten up" to get riddle of the sag and wrinkles. 

Ready for primer and paint. 

My turnt up study. 

I'm working on this new board. I used apoxy to Ttach the record. I heated the record first. Added some collage and paint. Let's see where this goes. 

This is also happening. 

New Storage Box

I picked this up at Home Depot. I'm excited. 

I crammed all my oil paint supplies in there. So far so good.
