PROGRESS

 The artwork is continuing on a relaxed pace in our backyard as Judy adds to her fence mural.

Our blogger friend down in Adelaide, Australia, who goes by the name of River was delighted at the "teeny, tiny trees" in my last post on the mural.

Well, they have been joined by some much larger trees in the closer view that are designed to show some perspective.

The lead artist creating this work says that darker blue is a lake.

I think it looks more like an ocean view but the mural is far from finished so we'll see in time.

The completed mural will have, in time, a 3-dimensional appearance.

I'll show you what I mean.

Those hot-air balloons she created yesterday are painted on balsa wood and when they're done they'll be glued to the fence.

The hacksaw, by the way, turned out to be a bad idea so Xacto knives were used to cut the balloon shapes out of the wood.

The BAD, who was here yesterday for a planning session, took the other pieces of wood home with her for she has a jeweler's saw that will probably work.

Between the two of them, these artists probably have all the tools, paint and brushes they need to turn part of an old fence into a beautiful work of art.

And all I have to do, in SWMBO's words, is "stay outta the way!"
