The Quickcrete #1103 Saga

Today my wonderful Grandma took me to get concrete to cast the Visitation order. I called her after two friends who were going to transport me had car break downs and one trip to Menards ended in my Quickcrete not being stocked! But I ended up having a lovely morning with Grandma and then casting the Visitation. Hoping it turns out...

Mistakes

Today I intended to cast some more Visitations. Instead, due to transportation difficulties, casting is postponed to Friday. Instead, I continued to work on the Eden house mural. The light bulb in the room did not work, so no pictures because the lighting was terrible. Also tweaked the green in the landscape way too much. Will need to do over.
Here is a picture of Pangur the cat telling me that screwing up is all part of the process.

It was a good show...

Here is a picture of Anne, Kathy, and I at the craft show.



Got some sculpting done while we were sitting there.






And, sold some pieces. It was a good show.

Adding the Hang Gliders

Added the outline of hang gliders to the Eden House Secret Place room mural.



And here is a picture of paper cut-outs to help lay them out.

More on the Mural

It reads: Whoever dwells in the secret place shall abide in the shadow of the almighty. I will say of the Lord, "He is my refuge and my fortress. God, in him I will trust."
Actually painted more than the letters today and then forgot to take a picture.

The Secret Place

Working on a mural for the basement room of the Eden house (the men's missionary house for the Frogtown community house and garden).





Last Week's Mystery Project

Yep, it is a small, orange toilet. For someone to give to her sister as a wedding present. Some kind of inside joke.

Confidential

The project I have been working on today and yesterday is a secret. It will be revealed next week.
Here is a picture of my cat in the meantime.
