build that shit!

so I was getting tired of having my loose canvas tossed in my studio corners...or in big ol bags...
so I got some tools and put my carpenters hat on..
Ripped out some ugly cabinets that were on the wall..and made my self some space to put my canvas in..
took me about 4 hours to do..most of the work was just measuring things out..spent about 100 bucks on tools and screws..
the wood..I dug up in my shed...one of these days Ill paint all one color..but for now..Im glad to organize my work.

next....maybe some stretched draws for my sheets of paper..
