The Progression of My Final Project

Wednesday, November 30th:
I returned to Bowe Street for the first time since Thanksgiving break intending on building my wood panels only to discover that some of the wood pieces had been cut JUST SLIGHTLY too effing small. I took a trip to Lowe's and bought more wood. Sadly, it was past 5:00pm so I couldn't work in the wood shop.

Thursday, December 1st:
I went to the wood shop to cut all my pieces of wood AGAIN. Thankfully, they were the right size this time.

I crafted my wood panels and sanded them to infinity and applied the first coat of gesso.
