On Friday I determined that I was not going to be able to complete my original idea in time. This is the last weekend I have available until mid August. Yesterday I made two frames for 8 X 10 canvas boards.

I'm going to glue two of the earlier black velvet pastels I made to the canvas panels.

When the other art piece is dry I'll frame it and post it later. Those two will be my swap pieces.

This is as far as I got with the original project, which is 11" X 14". I'll complete it later in August and post the progress pictures on my Home Tiki Bar thread.

I also picked up a timer for grow lights that has 50 second on and off cycles. When the black light project is done I'll set the cycle so the black light goes on for 100 seconds and then off for for 200 seconds. It will be like having my own magic window like Trader Sams.
