Day 12 and 13: Meeting in the middle

 2nd coat of deep space blue above arch

Mastery of bucket managment

(detail)

Beginning of stone wall at end of West end of mural

On top of grout tone, blocks are painted in

Very confidently painting at the top..after this picture was taken, we talked about
the term,.."safety first" 

Stone wall is beginning to take shape after 5 fairly easy steps. Primer, grout tone,
 outline of shape, highlights, and shadows.


Stars placed in the mural by Star Mural Ambassadors. It was a good week.
Only lost one day due to weather. Some prior commitments had
 5 of the Youth needing to be at another job,..but to return next week.
Everyone is satisfied with the progress and starting to see the mural take shape.
Next week we will start adding dimensions to the archways and then we will take off top layer of scaffolding, and move onto
the details of the land and Red Sea, Camels, horses and Palm Trees.
Once again, Mr. Nidal is proving to be invaluable to the project. Greg Phillips will be joining the team on
April 20th. Then a two week push to the end.
