I went to Home Depot to get a length of wood 8" wide. I had a vision of 8x8 blocks that I could sand the edges, gesso and paint. The nice fellow that cuts the wood said he could only cut 12" lengths. To my dismay, looking somewhat downtrodden (I was actually trying to do the math in my head!) he said, " Okay, I'll do it but they are still 12" long" Heehee. So here I have a stack of pine 8x8s just begging to be covered in color, collage, mixed media, wax, pen, ink , etc etc. SO much cheaper than canvas and more durable. I am just going to add wire to the back attached with thumbtacks and Voila!
