Just buy canvases. So much easier :)
So many times, it happens too fast...you trade your passion for glory. Don't lose your grip on the dreams of the past, you must fight just to keep them alive.

No way! Besides being able to custom tailor the size and shape, it's actually cheaper to build them (even accounting for the time invested). I built my most recent one in about 10 minutes, 10 more minutes to stretch the canvas, and 5 minutes to prime.
This is especially true if you want to paint on HUGE canvases.
And then... you're a real lumberjack artist who made his own canvas!
looks like a raw egg.... but a very nice raw egg.... Good job on the DIY canvas
Ha ha, haven't heard that one yet! I guess that would be appropriate considering the whole "embryo" theme.
Cool!
Since you stretch your own canvas, try using denim (as in, jean fabric) sometime. It makes a really nice painting surface. :)

Sounds like a fun idea. My aunt works at a fabric store, I bet I could try all kinds of cool stuff.
Burlap with thick gloopy paint could be cool. :)
heh heh, yeah! Some heavy duty tent canvas with some serious weave might be fun too.
