However, when the artist stretched the canvas onto the stretcher bars, they added staples to the corner, several of which are underneath the canvas, and one which you can see straddling the corner on top of the canvas. While the corners can be keyed out somewhat, they cannot be keyed out as needed because the staples are in the way and won't allow the bars to move freelyhttps://lonepineprojects.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/12/img_0882-e1512244720675.jpgMeasuring the depth of the stretcher barMeasuring the depth of the stretched canvashttps://lonepineprojects.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/12/img_0881.jpgIMG_0881detail of the back of an improperly stretched canvas.

It seemed like everything in Philadelphia was on fire when I lived there in the eighties. The city firebombed the group MOVE in West Philadelphia thereby destroying an entire block of homes. The desperation of so many people who were left behind when the factories in the city either closed up or moved overseas made crime an option to get by. I lived in this neighborhood where Frank Rizzo had the National Guard at the ready to attack protesters in the sixties. The factories there were either boarded up or hanging on by a thread. Late night entertainment included watching packs of feral dogs running the streets or watching how fast a car would pull into the empty lot and get completely taken apart before being set on fire. It was the economy of desperation.https://lonepineprojects.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/04/049.jpgMy first pinhole imageIn 1988 I produced my first pinhole camera image. I had seen an art student's senior project which used SX-70 Polaroid film in a pinhole camera. So I decided to experiment with it. After wasting a bunch of film, I put pinhole cameras away for about 12 years.https://lonepineprojects.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/04/048.jpgDad at workProbably the first person to influence my creativity was my father. He is a man who could teach himself anything. In this picture he is grinding stones which he rockhounded from a nearby quarry.
