Raw Canvas




  Just following the ancient tradition of many artists before me.
  I'm proud and honored to be a part of this tradition...but this is what all artists have to do. It's our roots.
  I purchased a length of raw cotton canvas in Deruta this week.  Unprimed cotton. No english spoken, so it was a very fun challenge.
  

  Back at my studio, I spent the morning applying gesso to the canvas. I'll need to do a second coat tomorrow.




















  We'll see how this canvas develops over the next several days.




  Stay tuned.
