Many hats

Last Friday I spent the afternoon  painting a mural for a client. I bet you all didn't know I paint children's murals. It has been something I've done for fun and it started when I painted clouds on Bethany's ceiling and a big sunshine over her closet when she was younger. Then I gave my niece a mural for her nursery. If you've heard of the book Guess How Much I Love You  this character is the first one I ever painted. It is about 3' x 4'.  



I've painted Pokemon characters that are 5' tall:


planets, stars,


ponies and rainbows.


The client I painted for on Friday wants a Design plan to update her living room after 10 years, (that's about right, isn't it?)  so that's  very exciting.  
It's a nice creative release for me and a great way to get into people's homes to tell them about what other design services we offer! 

Later we'll show you our design plans for two children's rooms presentations we are giving tonight.
Oh, and I'm working on the ORC this week as well.  Finally got some plumbing issues solved this weekend.
Have a great week. Thanks for your support and wonderful comments. You all are the best!

  1. I love a mural in a child's room. I had the "Guess How Much I Love You" design painted on my daughter's furniture when she was born. I'm saving 2 of the pieces for future grandchildren (25 years from now).

  7. Hi Nancy- I didn't realize you were an artist, too! I wish I had that talent.
    Hand painted murals bring such feeling to a room- your work is wonderful.
    Glad you resolved your plumbing issues in your laundry room.
    Have a great week!

  8. Wow, Nancy! Had no idea you were a muralist as well! I used to love reading that book to my girls when they were little.
