Me Musing .
. . October
25, 2009
Well I have
been working away on the painting. I got the second coat
on the Alley Workshop wall that faces the house and am really pleased
with it.
We
brought over my favorite outdoor art, a huge piece of copper that
has had years of just hanging outside, gaining great patina and
we hung it on the Workshop wall.
I
love all the colours and images that spring forth from it . . .
Nature certainly can do wonderful things with materials!
I
worked all the way around the house and got the first coat on all
but the window trim and overhang by the front door . . . an area
that is going to be the most difficult:
Saturday
while I was 'studying the situation', I began to laugh, remembering
one of Daddy's cartoons he did in the 70's. So I dug it out for
inspiration!
I
showed it to Eb and he laughed while going for the truck as I grabbed
the ladder!
It
appears in the photo that it will work; however, we couldn't get
the truck close enough since the steps come out beyond the overhang
. . . darn! I may just have to resort to my paint brush duct-tapped
to a mop handle! To be continued . . .
Am
pleased that the 'weather gods' have been good to us. We are still
having 'Indian Summer' days so perhaps I might even be able to 2nd
coat everything before winter sets in. Then I won't have to face
the paint scene again in the Spring!
Until
soon,
Che'usa
