Color Selection


Yet to be tried.....


It would seem that a color junky artist could narrow down a wall paint color to just the right shade, value and feeling, but it’s just not that easy.
Drop of Water too blue
Heather too green
Storm Blue too purple
Pudding  just right, but what a name.
Just right.

Pepper too ferocious
Smoky  too timid
Kite too happy 
Just not quite right with oak furniture.

Beach House will work, but not where we thought.
Cornflakes too crunchy
Jasmine too smelly
Summertime too hot
Welcome to the operating room - or some one said San Quentin State Prison. To be changed.

Just how many coats of paint can a wall hold?
All this and four more rooms to go.
