We must be doing something right
posted in Adoption, Garden, OmegaDotter |Since we’re still having gorgeous, clear, hot weather, OmegaDad is taking some days off from work to paint the formerly-stable-soon-to-be-greenhouse. Here’s what it looked like before he started his work, a month ago:
Pretty cheesy. I have photos of the whole process, but here’s what it looked like this afternoon:
In this picture, OmegaDad is hosing off the shed portion of the “villa” (as he calls it) in preparation for primer, which has already been applied to the greenhouse framing. Looks a lot better, doesn’t it?! We’re going to paint it to match the house; dark blue-gray with light blue-gray trim, and we’re going to put a square deck in the area between the two “wings”.
ANYWAY. This is all preface to what is the main point of my post. The dotter (shown in her painting T-shirt, which once upon a time was OmegaDad’s painting T-shirt) has been painting on pieces of plywood with the white primer. Yesterday’s painting was of a horse (of course). Today, though, when I came out to see how things were going, the dotter was working on a different painting. This one:
Which I just think is very cool.
