(also - do you roll an adhesive on the pegboard when applying the canvas layer or just stretch and staple around the backside of the frame?)

What is the construction of the base? Is there a photo without the bricks to be able to see it?

@@salliecowan Hi and thanks for the kind words and questions. I'll answer them in order: 1. Skirting = 3/4" Maple you can see in my blog post here: art.shanerobinson.com/shane-robinson-art-gallery-wailea-opens-andaz-maui/ 2. Electronics = Each unit simply had a power strip with 10' cord. Similar to this: www.amazon.com/GE-Protector-Outlets-Extension-37442/dp/B079RKX5ZL/?th=1 2.1. Lights I built out of aluminum conduit and LED bulbs in swivel heads with romex wiring that I added plugs and simply plugged into the power strip. See link in #1 above for the lights sticking out of the top of each unit. 3. NO adhesive on the canvas. Just stretch them around and staple just like stretching canvas over a frame. Then spritz with water and the canvas shrinks, like like for painting on a frame. Then 3+ coats of gesso or Zinsser Primer (cheaper) with light sanding between each coat. 4. Base = Just 3/4" maple plywood. Attached to the "ribs" with simple L-brackets like these: www.amazon.com/Stainless-Brackets-90Degree-Furniture-Bookshelf/dp/B0CMWX81F1/?th=1 If you share this video with a local furniture or cabinet maker they will be able to easily replicate the system. And show them the post in #1 above for photos of the finished units that are 24" deep by 48" wide.

@@ShaneRobinsonArtist You are the BOMB! I appreciate your responsiveness and helpful reply so very much!!! I'm fired up about this ☺

@@salliecowan You're very welcome! The only thing I have ever asked for in return in the 10 years since I posted this is that if someone builds their own versions they send me photos or a video of their version. 🤗 Happy weekending!

Thanks so much, Monica. The original GWS I used in my gallery at the Andaz Maui were disassembled and shipped to Santa Fe when we moved back and are now in use as paintings storage in our studio.

Thanks! Feel free to steal the idea and make them yourself or show the video to your local cabinet/furniture maker. We still use them to this day in our Santa Fe painting studio. With the canvas panels removed on one side they serve as room divider (canvas side) and painting storage on the back side.

Thanks, Lil! Honestly, no. No I don't. I've never been the type of Artist that says, "I NEED to create or else I'll die!" 😂 I do love to create and build things...be that physical or digital items. But more than anything I love to drop into the "zone" or "flow" and lose myself for hours. And I can do that building painting panels or furniture, doing painting experiments, or writing code. I can write code for 12 hours and forget about eating or taking a break. I do wish I had a $dollar for everytime someone said, "How can you be an Artist and a Programmer? They are 2 completely different things." I see them as the exact same thing. Both are just about problem solving and having a deep understanding of the tools and craft.

Hi Lil. Thanks so much! My Gawd the audio was horrible! 🤣 I suspended my "Art Career" in early 2023 after separation from my Life/Biz Partner of 23 years. We had (she now has) and amazing studio in the country outside Santa Fe (we're still best of friends). But having been spoiled with an incredible space on both Maui and Santa Fe, I decided to take a break when I no longer had access to a space. Then with the idea of traveling the world full-time showed up, that put the "Art Career" on hold indefinitely. I never showed my work in Santa Fe but I was the Operations Manager for 3 galleries at the same time (same person owned all 3) back in 2019 until February 2020 right before the pandemic hit. I saw the writing on the wall and got out just in time! I love to create and build things and can imagine settling down in many years to spend my last years just painting. But right now while I have health and ability I'm hitting the road full time at the end of 2024 for at least 1 year and then see what I want to do and where I want to be.

@@ShaneRobinsonArtist Makes perfect sense! I do hope you'll continue the art. You are very talented! Life is a journey of discoveries.

@@TravelwithLil8 Agree 1000% and Thanks, Lil. 🤗🙏🏼

Hi! Thanks! I'll start a new channel for that and will post on this channel when it exists. And I just found your correct acct and subscribed and will watch through all your vids! Just FYI there's another @travelwithlil channel that doesn't have any videos.

No problem with the canvas ripping or tearing. 1. Because it is gesso'd and painted. 2. Most important, there is NO stress or pressure on the canvas. The hangers are hanging on the pegboard.

I disassembled them and shipped them to Santa Fe, NM where we now live and they are now storage and display units in my studio! Just take this video to any local cabinet or furniture maker and they will be able to make these for you.

The panels are just sheets of pegboard, with plywood frames, wrapped in canvas, then painted with white household primer.

Velcro just holds on the little square corner pieces and keeps the larger panels "stuck" to the internal supports. But the large panels are HUNG on with what's called a "French Cleat." Go to 3:40 where I'm taking off the right side panel. You can see that after I pull it out to disconnect the velcro, I LIFT IT off the cleat at the top. And if you view the video full screen on a monitor you can see the cleats. When I lift the front big panel off, you can see, at the top, the cleat is secured with 5 screws. Does all that make sense?

😃🙏🏼🙏🏼

Thanks! Hope it helps others with ideas for their own projects.

Hi. I'm sorry that I don't have any drawings of the design. I generally just sketch out the idea on a whiteboard and build from there. I can tell you the finished exterior dimensions of the final GWS were 7' high, 2' deep, 4' wide. Given the ribs were made of 3/4" plywood, 3" wide, you can reverse engineer all the components and plans from there.

Shane Robinson Thank you! That helps

That's great, Ron! I'd love to see your implementation in your gallery! To answer your questions: 1. New mods: Nope. I've since moved back to Santa Fe (from Maui) and disassembled, shipped, and reassembled in my new Santa Fe studio without the exterior panels. With just the ribs (frame) in place they now serve as canvas/panel racks! Yet another use for them. And because they are on wheels they are easy to move around the studio. 2. The "hooks" are just regular 6" pegboard hooks that I cut down to about 1" and dipped the cut ends several times in acrylic paint, letting dry between each dip. That provides color on the tips to make them easy to see PLUS padded protection for the canvas frames and panels. Hope that helps and hope your systems work great for you!

@@ShaneRobinsonArtist Thank you for the reply, I'll try to do some videos of my set ups. That is as long as the Board of Directors approves it.

👍🏼@@RonAck01

Simply the Best!!! Well designed & well executed. Thanks for sharing.

@@RonAck01 Curious to hear if your plans were approved and implemented?

Thanks! I actually built out functional units for my gallery at the Andaz Maui at Wailea. Photos here: shanerobinson.com/andaz-maui-gallery-wailea/

Wow! Thanks so much. I wanted to be an architect when I was young and going into college....but got sidetracked with tech (computers in the 80's) and then found my way to Art School...and the University of Iowa did not have an architecture program in the 80s.

ArtResin Aloha David/Rebecca! Yes. Still on Maui but I closed this studio space back in December 2014. The termites and mold just got to be too much to deal with... Congrats on the amazing new ArtResin!! LOVE what you both are doing and will be ordering in the future once I get a new working space setup.

***** cool, you need a new space!

Raising Creativity Yep... It's been a tough 5+ months not having a studio space after having 2,100 square feet for 3 years. :-(

Thanks so much! Love your work and your videos!

Much Mahalos (thanks) !! The actual units ended up being 4 feet wide and 2 feet deep, instead of this 3 feet by 1 foot prototype, and they work great! You can see them in use here: www.shanerobinson.com/shane-robinson-art-gallery-wailea-opens-andaz-maui/

Looks great!

How do I get one?
