Wild and Free-ish


I'm trying to redecorate my upstairs bathroom. It's not working. I ordered this print from Etsy to hang up there. But once I had it framed, it seemed too nice to hide in a second floor bathroom. Besides, some children neglect the fan when they shower. It could get all steamy and damaged.


It's kinda a good thing. I was getting tired of Klimt's Beech Trees anyhow. (I wanted birch trees.)


I love the mats. The frame guys was pushing me towards orange and green....obviously doesn't know me at all.


So, for upstairs, Sofi and I are painting something "in the style of" Katie Daisy. She did the background wash...


(I might need a second giant dining table. We have a lot going on.)


Sofi did the initial lettering in pencil...and then the control freak in me took over and went over everything in gesso the way I wanted it. Sofi didn't care. She painted a dragon.


Color will be the next time I have a spare moment and enough patience to let everyone paint.
