"...but tomorrow may rain so - I'll follow the sun



"Cattle Call"...can't forget those chickens though...two very prominent "Industries" in Hayward's History
 
"Wet Days" equal lengthy delays...we were out there every day - rain or shine - (but paint "just don't stick to a wet wall!") It took us a while, but we've finished panels 10 and 11  in tribute to Hayward's Agricultural Past...now, from a Barn...must come an Owl....yes? Panel #12 will arrive before Christmas.
(just an interesting side-note: we left the ivy "growing in place" here...as a little experiment.  3/4 of "the ivy" is a painting...we're hoping that as the seasons change, we'll always have foliage floating across this scene...)




Our Thanks as always for your interest, encouragement, and truly admirable sense of humor-
(An incredibly sincere and equally "damp" little muralist"),
Jean

  1. My boy almost lost his mind with joy after seeing the latest photos of your work. "Farm, farm, farm!" And then he named every thing you painted. Your work continues to be beautiful, my friend. Stay dry! PIMof3
