A different kind of painting


Lately I've been doing a lot of painting. Not the canvas kind though, I've been painting walls! I finally got a condo!
I had been looking for a year, and lost out on many of them. Finally the perfect one came along and I wasn't about to let some ugly walls ruin the deal. I have taken on the big job of painting all the walls.
I decided to go with a color scheme of my cat Lily. Cream, taupe and blue. Plus my black furniture will add to the whole siamese feel. So far I have the walls painted cream and my bedroom is blue. The sun room will be taupe.
In the photo above, I wanted to see what a big babushka painting would look like :) I painted it just for fun before I finished painting the wall.
Thanks for being patient while I continue to suit up my new place.
Hugs to all!

Perhaps you should leave her up there...looks cute!
My brother is a professional house painter, and for those who look, he always hides a happy face somewhere under or behind something when he has a job...he's a little nuts I guess...

Congratulations on your new place! What fun that you got to paint the walls to suit you and your furniture...and your cat. :o) I love the big painting of the girl; working in large scale must have been fun.
