Finally finished the mural for my friend.  Well, I call myself finishing it.  I could probably work on it forever. Who knew painting a mural could be so much fun? 


It became a puzzle to be solved as I worked on it.  Some areas are solved very nicely while some areas could use more work.  I just had to throw in the towel for now.  Maybe I can go back in a few months and work on some of the problem areas.

Next project?  Not certain about that but I am sure something will come up.

Another busy week. Lots of great weather so that means lots of golf.  But I need to get back to painting. Here is the mural that I have been doing for a dear friend.  It has been so much fun working on it.  It has been like a puzzle. I started out with a sketch but when I put it on the wall, the mural took a life of its own.  I still have to add more detail but it is looking good.

It started as a Piedmont countryside but it quickly morphed to a mountain scene.  Couldn't help but add more mountains in the distance, a Christmas tree farm and off course there is a cabbage patch.

It is beginning to take shape at this point.
More detail has been added.
