12.30.11 The scariest, yet most exciting, and hopefully rewarding, art project I've yet to take on : )
Ok, so it's not quite 2012 yet, but i want all my mural pictures to fall in the same album...so I've changed the rules a bit : P!!
This is day 1 of my 30' by 5' mural I am working on. It is my first time ever doing anything so large scale, and my first time painting (other than a doodle here or there). I'd tell you what it is going to be...but where is the fun in that!!
Today I learned that priming a wall seemed easy enough, HOWEVER, it is physically exhausting, and I had no idea it would take 2 coats!!
I also learned to mark things off with pencil, and not pen...oops.
Many thanks to Stu, and the FIOS team at work, for your help in teaching me some painting skills on your lunch break. Would have been lost without you guys!
Day two of mural will be drawing my design, hopefully starting Tuesday, January 3rd!
