Sunday:
We got it together and started on our own Modern style for our front living room. We purshased supplies and painted one of the four walls. Our colour scheme will be faded moss green and dusty egplant, with Cool blue accents (with a base of off-white, cream, black). There were pictures taken, (some of me with my bitch ass scrubbing the hardwood floors), you may see some.
Then when the wall was painted, we ran off to a local neighbourhood pool party and swam, drank champagne, ate watermellon and BBQ oysters. Collapse back at home.
Today is just too soon.
Ooh, the colors sound wonderful.
And I agree with you about today!
When is my front room getting redone ?
Um, when we do it?
What about Eddie weekend? Can we have two events at once?
Depends on how long you will behere- but maybe not- building a huge bookcase and such first……………
Bierstadt! Did they have a lot of his goods? I saw a pawful of his works a few years ago in San Diego—the paintings were huge and the colors were as rich and intense as they must have been when he painted them. Thanks for the tip. and I are leaving Canadia on Wednesday, and now it seems a stop by the bay area is a must.
They had only one. There were other painters in his style/movement (and many were as ‘good’), but only one Bierstadt. SF MOMA is having a Chagal show, though, as I understand.
