I've been a painting contractor since 1979, with forays into other ventures along the way. I have painted shopping malls, Victorian mansions, new builds, striped parking lots, thousands of homes and businesses, freeway retaining walls and underpasses...pretty much anything that stands still long enough to be painted. I've run crews and been a foreman (forewoman, I guess) and taught many people the craft.
Dogmuse is recently reincarnated. In my 16 month absence, it continued to get a fair bit of traffic, according to sitemeter. Oh dear, another abandoned blog? Nope. I am 50 and live in Michigan with two Rottweilers, a Nottweiler and three accidental cats. I do agility and paint houses and write sometimes. My favourite icecream flavor is peanut butter. I can probably beat your ass at Scrabble. How's that for succinct?

I like that mottled look on the stairway wall. Is that or WAS that a sponge technique.
That was Lisa's artistry....she did it with a woolly roller (double roller specifically for making pretty, diffuse effects.) She mixed up several of the surrounding colours and added a reddish brown to match the wood trim. I really loved the way it came out!
