Ongoing progress with painting

[mizarchivist]

While I was offering instruction for those who were so inclined out on the very unfamiliar side of Ohio yesterday, the guys along with Robin, caulay  and asciikitty  painted at Swan. As I expected, they were an excellent team and got the majority of things done. The basement in also well on its way to rehabilitation. All new photos are in the Flickr photostream.

The Kitchen-

Attic-


Living Room-

The fumes were almost non-existent by the time we came back today for round 2. I straightened up in the kitchen and did non-painty things.

We were clever, we were- my bike came along in the car with us, and I rode back- That's about 4 miles or so. I'd not have wanted to do more. I stopped by the bit of wetlands field I consider Bob Wright's (due to the uncanny ability for my ipod to play Pink Floyd on that bit of my treks), sat, talked to my parents, and reveled in the reality....

I don't have to give up my path.

I came home to see Mama Bunny chillin' with the violets in the front yard

I do love purple and green together. The last two pictures illustrate why it works so well together. I also LOVE spring. My eyes are overwhelmed with a saturation of color.

Those are some pretty kick-ass colors you guys picked...

Thanks

We're adding a deep red glaze to one wall of the kitchen, even. I'm pretty stoked. The notion of painting at all is pretty stellar

Hmmmmmm....wondering where I've seen that color combination before...? ;^)

I thought you swore off painting walls red?

Truth - they look fabulous. Nicely done.

My mom's house, too.

Wait, you painted a room yellow ON PURPOSE?!?!? :)

[asciikitty.livejournal.com]

Two rooms, even!

I know, I know--- shoulda been a deep silver, right? :)

That was sort of my response

But chacun a son gout. I do like the attic purple.
