Progress on the birds of paradise for the mural. Lots more to do, obviously. And a close up of the rough stucco I'm painting on.
You know, just to make you appreciate my frustrations. 😀
Happy Saturday!
Mural progress.
Slow going. Sigh.
For those who are not familiar with the sub-tropics -
The humidity here lately has not helped. On high humidity days, the stucco walls actually have 'sweat' & the paint can't be applied.

Good Morning!
It's finally been drier here, so I can continue on the mural.
Some more progress here. You can see the slow progress delineating all the *%!* leaves. 🤣
(Scroll down my timeline for pics from the start.)
Just listed 3 new T-shirts & 3 new mugs for my math nerd friends. My original designs.
Got the links for the workshop on Jan. 27th. 2-4 PM EST

Or attend via Zoom! https://nova.zoom.us/meeting/register/tJwvde-hrTMvHtKa8uIIZPj_Vo5-c1NSusWQ#/registration
Happy Thursday.
It's cloudy and gloomy here. Very unusual for Key Largo - it's been gloomy, chilly, and rainy nearly every day since before Christmas.
Climate change is really changing normal patterns.
Here's a pretty shot of bougainvillea, though.
Happy Tuesday!
Mural progress. Slow. Sooo many leaves.

Happy Sunday!
Nice sunny day here in Key Largo. 75 degrees right now.
Here's today's lizard, if you can spot him. Look at his chunky legs! he's well fed.
Yay! It's Friday!
Mural progress. Sometimes it feels like I'm moving molasses. And on the rough stucco, it kinda is.
I'm using Benjamin Moore Aura Exterior Low Luster paint. Painted the walls with Superwhite first.

More progress on the mural.
And - the client's mom & a good friend both told her they hate the pineapples & dragonflies on the pots! So, they are going back to terra cotta - ish - she wants me to make them paler.

Hoping we all will see a happier, healthier New Year.
This gorgeous photo was taken by Alexander Kuznetsov & dist by Reuters. Northern lights in Lapland.
So magical, it makes me believe maybe there's hope that humans will see the light & stop torturing each other. (I know, I know. But just give me today & tomorrow, okay?)
More progress on the mural. It's been cold (low 60s - that IS cold for here) & damp in the mornings, so it affects how the paints perform. So, fewer hours to work.
Anyway - the 2nd shot is a close up of the Shrimp & Bearded Iris plants in progress. You can see the rough surface of the stucco. Not an easy surface to work on.
