Today I decided to be impulsive [irony] and painted a tree on my wall.




I feel the earth move under my feet, I feel the sky tumbling down...




As days go, today was pretty relaxing in a decently busy way. Woke up early, got coffee out with a friend, did some laundry, painted a tree on my bedroom wall, went out for dessert with another friend (who's leaving the country next week, and this was the last time I'd see her until... ever? heck, no.), made decent dinner, and my roommate got a job (ok, that one's not me).

As an impulse project, this came out alright. I needed wider masking tape and less spackle on the wall (it came off a little with the tape), but honestly I'm pretty pleased. This wall was blank and bothersome, and I needed to actually go through with one of my hair-brained ideas, just to get rolling.



I still need to go back and touch up the edges, take off some of the hazy over-spray from the paint can. Thoughts?

  2. Nice tree. You seem to be an actual artist.

    "Roommate got a job." Eh? Please share....

  3. Not sure how you did it, but it looks great. Which wall is it on? Behind the table? (I guess this means you are not planning to move soon?)
