Using my first few boards as a test, I continued my process of drawing in CMY. Nothing different from my previous process of doing one drawing in monochromatic colour, then shuffling the canvas and layering another drawing in a different monochromatic colour, and repeating that a third time. I not only wanted to test out the continuation of colour but also plan to do a second with use of greyscale to almost critique the differences and compare the two.

Note: I like to prep my boards with wall paint rather than primer as I personally find the surface nicer to work with dry powders in particular. Note: Not all canvases were prepped. A random amount have been left bare. A random amount have one side prepped. A random amount have both sides prepped.

I am using 2400mmx1200mmx7mm plywood boards for the pillars to keep them leightweight. Luckily I have a family friend that works in kitchen & cabinetry construction and fitting who has a saw that could cut my boards to size accurately.

Following from my last post (https://www.laurensimons.art/post/pillar-plans), I thought about the square widths of the proposed pillars and knew that I wanted to keep them somewhat narrow. Having them narrow should help make them appear visually taller than they are, but I also believe that having them narrower would present the idea of a person standing? Maybe? Hopefully? Again making this decision to have them narrower is a conscious decision to go easy on my body as I want

After spending yesterday moving my equipment and materials that I think I may need for this project, I took some time to plan out how I could construct these freestanding structures. (Images of plans need to be inserted) I have settled on the plan of having lightweight pillars. The pillars were chosen due to the simplicity but effectiveness of the structure when it comes to the contruction of them, but also the simplicity of the aesthetic of the structure itself. I didn't wan
