Here is the real reason I didn’t take my paints to the Land of No Electricity, the reason I wanted to try a “real” vacation: it is because I had my first mural commission awaiting my return! Yeppers, after my practice-for-free murals, someone is actually PAYING ME MONEY to paint a mural!!  This means that I had to have a swamp cooler installed in my painting space, and wow, what a wonderful invention! Yesterday, after a fair amount of necessary tasks procrastination, postponement and excuses, I began the mural. (Deanne, the shelves on the left contain a large roll of craft paper and lots of Michael’s stuff; the shelves on the right contain my notecards, envelopes, and packaging materials, along with a box of styrofoam cups and another of old accounting paperwork. Also, no hoops will be shot during this painting project!)

 

As with all of life, more will be revealed in the fullness of time. Stay tuned!
