Painters Thumb

For those of you who have painted with me (Jen, Judy, Jon, Mom and Dad...) you know what a disaster I am with a paintbrush. This time was no different. Our landlord, Ed, had the floors completely redone. They are even more beautiful than they are in the pictures. I had a brand new brush and paint tray and I was determined to keep them clean. I don't understand what I do wrong. I was consciously trying and I was still covered with paint before the first wall was done. I don't know if I hurry too much, or what. I dripped on the floor a few times, but cleaned it up right away. Thankfully Marc is helping me with the final paint color. I think it will look really nice when it is all done. The room is a big space with a lot of windows, a fireplace, and a large doorway so it is going to be challenging to arrange. Our furniture is coming next week Thursday so it must be painted by then!
