On Saturday I went to school to paint my mural. I arrived at around 9:30, and everyone was there already. I was doing two panels, while my partner Hannah did the other two. First, we had to draw out our design in pencil on the boards, use a ruler to divide up our panels into sections, and put tape around the edges of the lines (to keep the paint from going into other spaces/sections). My design was a flower, with ivy vines, an owl, and complicated swirls.
After we were done we were allowed to paint, I started on my flower petals, and then after I was done moved onto the ivy vines. We worked until 12:00, but I hadn't even finished one panel yet. We were asked to clean up, and had to wash our paint containers, and paintbrushes before leaving. Lucie Vovk was very creative in her painting, she decided not only to decorate the wall, but also my face. So my nose, and cheeks were covered in bright blue acrylic paint (which took
forever to get off, but was awesome).

This experience was very fun, and I enjoyed putting together my mural. I'm looking forward to this Saturday, and next Wednesday when I'll be able to complete the painting.
