A Kind of Happy Worth The Hurt

Scalds. Pretty minor but bad enough to make mum run for burn spray and some ointment. The redness and the watery bumps made her wince. I got them from stretching canvas too hard and too quickly onto the box frames I built last week.

Naked knuckles against rough wood.

Yum.  

The burn spray stung like mad at first. But look at those babies behind me. A 3-coat primed 4x3’ canvas and the badly bent 5x3’ canvas I obviously over-stretched a while ago - I was too excited that I forgot I hadn’t installed braces at the back yet. Will have to deal with that some other day. 

Geez. I’ll never have pretty lady fingers.
