What a weekend!

I had a brilliant time at Butterfly Conservation AGM on Saturday! It's always nice to see & talk to people who share the same interest.  I just love seeing people's faces when they see their favourite moths (or trying to decide!) at my stall. 

Today, I went to a small park in Leamington Spa, and started on another mural project. It's a commission from Warwick District Council. The preparation work for the wall was completed last week, just in time for yet more cold & wet days.  As the weather was going to be ok today, I decided to just do it! 

It's a proper blank canvas and SO MUCH TALLER than I remembered.......!! 

 
This is as much as I could do - my arms are officially shut down. 

This is what it'll look like...roughly. 

It's going to rain tomorrow, so I hope that the paint will dry super quickly.................!


昨日の総会は、なかなか大成功でした。やはり同じ興味を持った人たちと会うのは楽しいものです。お気に入りの蛾を探す顔を見るのも好きです。

今日はレミントンの公園へ行き、ウォーリック郡役所さんからの依頼である壁画プロジェクトを開始しました。先週やっと壁の準備ができたけれど、月曜日からは気温がマイナス、雨も多分降ってばかりになるみたいなので、今日を逃すと、長い事塗れないことに・・・

覚えていたよりもやたらと大きな、真っ白なキャンバス。がんばってここまで塗りました。デザイン通りにうまく行けばいいのだけれど。

明日は雨。その前にペンキが乾きますよーに!!!
