​•  Buy box frame - 08/31/17

​•  Conduct tests - 09/08/17

Received my frames and experimented with different colors for the interior backing and sides. I also practiced painting on the back side of acetate and vellum.

​•  Make metal spacers - 09/22/17

I created metal stand-off spacers for "I Transition I". After looking through many fastener bins at the hardware store, I found a few different options, but they were too long. I decided to go the cheap route, but a lot more work! I bought an extra long bolt, cut it into four equal pieces, and drill small holes in one end. It took me much longer than expected.
