My New Favorite Thing

When I moved into my apartment four years ago, I think someone told me I could paint. Maybe they told me I had to ask permission first... details. Anyway, I always thought that would be fun. And it turns out, I was sooooo right.






I have only finished two walls so far. More to come.


Before:


After: (not only is the wall painted, but hey, I cleaned!)



Before (let us pretend that the boxes and general mayhem is not present in this pic):



After:





Next wall... the wall full of fish. Oh yes. Fish.

LOVE IT!!!
After the wall of fish you can come to my house...will pay you with non-stop food and entertainment in the form of little people.

Thanks!
But so far I can only paint trees... so you really have to want to live in a forest. The offered payment sounds just right though :)

I am so jealous. I have been wanting to paint a mural on my wall since the day I bought a house. I just mentioned this to Steph and she said "yea, when I saw Charity's pictures I was going to tell her 'thanks a lot, this is going to give Jacob ideas'"

And here's the fuel to the fire: the two walls I've done so far have been amazingly easy. So, there's that excuse gone.
