Globe Theater


For this 12 x 8 foot set back drop for the hilarious play "Complete Wrks of W. Shakespeare," my goal was to capture the essence of a portion of the first level of the Globe Theater. For the painted green wall, I used a glazed - roll, rag and brush technique. I used three different shades of paint. To date, this is my favorite faux curtain. I painted this scene in August, 2008.

Close-up of cobblestone


We had a bonfire in the yard last night to welcome in the New Year. It was a beautiful night.

Since I talked in an earlier post about painting the cobblestone floor, I thought I would include a close-up shot of the stones. Excuse the glare from my camera's flash.

Happy New Year to all.
