Big canvas

I stretched a 210 x 120 canvas this morning. it took me 2 hours and I was buggered after that. Then I primed it. On monday I'll give it another coat and then probably another one on tuesday or wednesday.

I am not sure what I will be doing with this yet, but I have always wanted to paint something large. I will see how it goes and if it doesn't suit i will change back to smaller sizes.

There are so many paintings I have in my head. I want to do all of them. they all follow the same theme but use different techniques. I am also thinking about what i want to do next year for honours.

The studio is great. The people I have around me this semester are fantastic! They like the same music that I do so I am happy.

Even though I am only doing 30 credit points, I am there every day. I forgot how much work uni actually is. It is consuming my every thought at the moment. Even roller derby is taking a back seat, which is amazing considering our first bout is coming up on the 4th of April.
