So far, my project is going well. I have attained all of my materials, built my panel supports and primed the surfaces. I ran into my first obstacle this week. I purchased all my materials from the hardware store and brought them back to the woodshop to build my supports for the canvas. I built the supports (the cradle, or frame) and went to adhere the panel to the top, only to discover that the hardboard panel was not the exact size it had been advertised as. It was 1/4 inch short all the way around! So, I had to disassemble and then resize the frame and then attach the panel. It was a good lesson learned: always take full responsibility and double check/measure your materials before hand. Measure twice, cut once, etc. Tonight I will make photocopies of the graph-paper and collage it to the panels. Tomorrow I will set the pouring medium.
