There seems to be another baby boom going on. Or at least a boom in baby nurseries. We’ve been blessed (as in “blessed event”) to be a part of these goings on.
During the summer we got a call to paint clouds on the ceiling, a tree and wall quote for a “soon to arrive” little boy named Luke. when I arrived the room wall all white except for a wallpaper world map affixed to an entire wall.

The homeowner showed me her fabrics, furniture and other inspirations. We sketched out a design and picked a blue for the sky.
When I returned the room was blue & I was ready to begin.

I first masked off the entire room to protect it from overspray.

I masked myself off for the same reason.

Then I got to go wild with a spray gun. I don’t think that spraying clouds will ever get old. It’s just too much fun!

Next came the fantasy tree. There were leaves from a weeping willow & a spiral trunk. Luke’s mother also had me do some hand lettering of a bible quote for welcoming her son into the world.
What an absolutely elegant room!
