Ladies and gentlemen, girls and boys… Drum roll please…. The old Jerusalem unveiled… 13feet x 36 ft latex/acrylic on muslin 54 hours of work, more or less, from start to finish, including the time when I first drew the scene on paper, based on what Pr. Randy gave me. This is what he first gave me.. It was alot of fun [...] I’m so close to being done, but the closer I get, the more it seems I still have to do. Often times, I find people have a hard time getting a sense of how much time it takes to do certain things, especially when it comes to art. I often have a hard time keeping track of how long it takes for me to do things. But yesterday, my time was limited, so it was easy for [...] Yesterday I helped Pastor Tim get my mural back on the wall first thing in the morning. Between that and the other people that came by, I didn’t get as much done as I’d hoped. Either way, some progress was made, and I am happy to be able to walk back from it and get [...] I’m still working on the mural. Now, I think I have had all the help from other volunteers I can, and I have to do the rest on my own. The buildings need to be one unit, and I need to do all the details myself. I won’t be able to get anyone to do it like [...] The last few days are a bit of a blur. I’ve been working on the mural for the whole weekend. Thursday I mixed a couple colors. Friday I painted all day, with 5 volunteers, down to 2, down to 1, by the night time. I was at the church from 9:15am to 10:40pm with an hour respite. On [...] About 6 weeks ago, I was asked if I’ve done murals before, by a leader from our new church. Without hesitating, I said, yes. It’s true, I have done a couple. Little did I know what I was getting myself into. I had said yes to painting, and leading other volunteers, to paint the backdrop for [...] Phoenix had a whole morning playdate a couple days ago. That means, that I dropped Phoenix off at 10 am to Kevin’s mom. They played, she fed them lunch and took them to school and all I had to do was pick him up at 3:15, when school was over. So for the first time in [...] So, the garage studio which we’d hoped for, will not be happening anytime soon. The barn/garage has lots of little problems, and it would take several thousand dollars to make it work. We’re not sure it’s worth fixing. In the meantime, we had to spend money on a car instead, so no studio for me there. But [...] The entry from a few weeks ago, where you were to guess what place it might be. Here it is. It’s inspired by a picture I took when I was on a mission trip to Indonesia, 2 years ago. It was a year after the tsunami, and this was one of the places affected. There used to be [...] |
