And so starts a whole new set for my church.
On Monday I peeled off the old paintings (with the help of an extremely selfless friend...it's not a fun job!). They are now folded up and lounging in the dumpster.
On Tuesday I stretched new sheets over the framework.
On Wednesday my hubby and I sprayed them all a lovely gunmetal color (although, looking at the barbed wire, you'd think the background was a different color. Not so.) I should say that HE sprayed them, I stood by and watched.
On Thursday I started painting. And on to Friday. And on to Saturday. Starting completely over is a bit time consuming! But, oh the results!! These will eventually have words. But for now we'll sit there and stare at some very Colorado-ish images.
When I was painting them, I was absolutely SURE the barbed wire was my favorite. But THEN I painted the Indian Paintbrush, and OH MY WORD!!! Did my Lord hold my hand?! Did He direct my color choices?! Did He?! Amen and amen. I LOVE THESE.
Oh my goodness, these are SO great!! My fave is the Aspen leaves...tho the pinecone is delightfully wintry. The background color is wondrous.
