This summer With-a-Why, my youngest son, decided to begin painting a mural on a wall upstairs. It's still unfinished. His schedule is pretty busy — he's got a part in the school play, he sings in the chamber choir, he takes piano and voice lessons, and he's taking a bunch of AP and college courses. Plus, he's got a girlfriend now, and romance takes time.
Even though the mural isn't not done yet, I'm enjoying the bright yellows and oranges on the wall. As the cold winds whip the leaves off the trees outside the house, I like having this brightness inside. I think I'm especially going to like it during the grey and white month of February. Of course, I'm hoping by then, the project is done so I'm not still tripping over cans of paint and the big pieces of cardboard we scattered on the floor to protect the rug.
<That's With-a-Why in the top photo. That's his girlfriend, Shy Smile, in the bottom photo. Yes, she's been drafted to help with the project.

WOW, this is amazing!! (and I don't even like yellow!)
Thanks for sharing the progress and the gorgeous hairs of With a Why and Shy Smile! :)
I can't wait to see the finished project either and I don't even have to stumble upon cardboard and paint cans day in, day out! ;)
They both have such gorgeous hair!
That's With-a-Why? He's gotten so tall!!!
I think he was just a little kid when I first started reading your blog.
What a talented artist! Perhaps when he's done over at your pad he could take a swng by mine! :D
Beautiful! I'm still so surprised at how big he is these days. Time flies.
VERY COOOL
