really glad for friday (but no painting)...
We had a really crazy week here. Long nights, early mornings, and I just couldn't pull it together to get a painting done for today. I was thinking that I would have to wait awhile for fedex to pick up the backdrops and I could squeeze in a painting, but our guy got here in no time.
Fingers crossed that there are no hitches and it makes it to California tomorrow morning. We painted two huge backdrops for Weeds. And everyone is exhausted. Got the job Tuesday to be completed TODAY. And we did it. The boss lady is really amazing! One of the backdrops was 20' high by 18' wide and the other was 18' high x 23' wide. Started the second one last night. The joys of working late. I really can't believe we made it. I don't know how that happens. Its like the theater and the show must go on. I was here and I am still amazed.
Instead of a full painting I have beginnings on a couple. One more that needs to be stretched. I have notes on this photo here.
