Slow progress




















Michelango painted the wrong ceiling! Alex and I swapped rooms yesterday after I painted the walls and ceiling of mine a few weeks ago. Although the rooms are the same size, because of the arrangements of the built-in wardrobes in our dividing wall, he was having trouble arranging everything to fit. Now we've swapped we both seem to have managed to create more space for ourselves. I also inherited his bookcase and a lovely wooden floor - my study was the only carpeted room in the house. A win-win situation. Except that his room is bright yellow and I'll have to get the paintbrushes out again. Deep joy...

I adore the photo attached to this post! I find it very inspiring ;D. Good for you that you now have the room you love for your study/art room. I look forward to seeing the results!

Thanks Laura! He is a lovely snail, and he made such a nice mark!

Great photo - especially the happy accident (?) of the snail just on the line. I like all the tones and textures.

Felicity said...

I shouldn't admit this but I didn't notice the line when I took the photo! Definitely a happy accident!

What a great photo! :o) Hope you don't develop a dislike of paint/ing after all this renovating. (g) Sounds like all the inconvenience and hassle will be worth it though.
