This is one kind of painting that I do not enjoy, my arms, neck, and back are screaming from the pain of hoisting scaffolding, climbing ladders, and painting overhead on our new art booth for the state fair.  A coat of primer, then a coat of the chosen paint.  Today we moved the scaffolding inside to begin the same procedure all over again.  By the end of the week, the painting should be finished.  We made everything harder by trying to paint after the booth was moved to storage at the fairgrounds, because we didn’t have access to power or water, thereby eliminating the possibility of using a paint sprayer.  So, the whole thing is taking much longer than we’d planned.  Oh well, it will be done soon and we’ll move on to the next phase; building print racks, finish electrical, and what to do for the floor.  Just another day in the life of an actual living artist

More tomorrow,

Gail Niebrugge, Painter of Booths
