Stairwell Mural by April (Day 7)

Not done yet, but here's the preliminary dandelion puffs, seeds, and flowers. The seeds right now are brown and blue, waiting to be mostly covered with white to create a highlighted effect.



I can't tell you with what joy I admired the dogwood blossoms that April painted today! The dogwood tree is done!




Lots more shading of roses and leaves.




And April finally "touched up" the rose that Leia painted.


Here you can see the floating dandelion seeds that float into the hall, by the way (at my request). : )


A little bit closer shot of the dandelions. . . . And poor April is exhausted. Thank goodness for Starbucks Coffee. We've been going together each night after Leia goes to bed, . . . April often getting three extra shots of espresso!
