to bring to an end

and it's done! after a few more marathon days/nights of painting, the mural is finished. as i said before, jesse and i decided on no sky i have a few more pictures of the mural in progress, and a few completed pictures. i must say that even though it was an extremely exhausting (and painful) process, that it was very much worth it. the outcome is a very successful mural that really interacts well with the space and i'm really proud of it. ultimately the supplies used were:

1 quart of black latex interior house paint (eggshell)
1 gallon of white latex interior house paint (eggshell)
2 rollers
various paintbrushes
2 dropcloths
2 ladders (a 6 ft and a 16 ft)
roller extension

ruane, dana, and jess stopped by to check it out which was great, as it was nice to hear some input from an objective point of view. overall, i'm incredibly happy with the outcome and extremely pleased with the way it interacts with the space. it was an extremely helpful learning experience in both technique and practical knowledge, and i'm very happy to have created the mural.
