Interesting insight while cleaning my brushes
by jean on Apr.21, 2006, under Artist Updates
Today I added the second tone of blue onto my day/night combo. One thing I do have to say is that texture ceilings/surfaces do hide the imperfections. I found that I didn’t have to blend as perfectly as with a flat surface. It looked good so far, tomorrow…well, later today, I’ll be putting in the 3rd layer of paint and that will be the white clouds!! This will add another dimension of depth to this mural. 
So here is my revelation…there is something with me and water that brings on these miraculous insights. I was cleaning my brushes and a huge sea sponge I had used on the ceiling. I rinsed off all my brushes and then came the sponge. As I was cleaning the sponge by rubbing it under water on my hand, it occurred to me…
Am I cleaning the sponge? OR was the sponge cleaning me? 
hmmm…
As I write this, I am still blown away and highly amused! Pictures to come tomorrow!
