Painting a Master(bedroom)piece

While Julie and Renae have been away, I decided to be somewhat productive. Of course I did watch a couple movies and take time to enjoy the historical culture of Madrid, at a leisurely pace :)
But I did decide to go ahead a repaint our master bedroom. Julie said that she didn't like the pastel yellow - I think we should go for the Easter-themed decor. But alas, I zoned in and after muttering through a difficult couple of conversations at the paint store, I was ready to get started. Paint, tape, brushes, rollers, plastic sheet, and of course my paint hat! That is correct, the store owner gave me a nylon paint hat to wear (much like a fishing hat...but larger) probably to give him some comic relief after having to put up with my "spanglish". Apparently this is the Spanish craze, because today I saw some in the local general store - (however, the paint store did not have a stir stick for the paint, that required mixing - oh well).

It took me half of Sunday to tape off the room, and clear it out, in order to get ready for painting. I was about ready to call that good for the new motif. Then on Monday I got up and got to work with the painting ... all day. But I think it will be well worth it do have that done before Julie gets back … hopefully it’s the right color (… I’m leaving the tape on just in case).

But here is the artwork that I am placing on our walls as a reminder.

…hmmm…something is missing…

… ahh yes … A touch of class!

I think Julie will be pleased, as that is now framed within a painted heart. Call me Picasso if you like, but I prefer just to do things like this … that are better.
