Roberts Bench got a rework. We enlarged the basic shape by about 15% and gave it better form. I am much happier with it now. The Point (pointed peak to the left of the bench) is still giving me heck. The point will also get a makeover before we are finished with the project. Right now, it is just too busy. Simplify, simplify, but the challenge of the beam is a concern. When I do a larger scale mural, for example; 25 feet by 150 feet, The vertical supports, conduit or almost any 3-D object, are not too much of a challenge. Where this mural is a smaller, the shapes are all smaller, making the supports more of a challenge to paint around.
The trees in the area to the right fourth section are starting to show a little more form than just flat patterns. The tree portion of the mural will probably be painted quicker than the rest of the scene.
On a funny note... One of the employees where I'm painting the mural almost got his face painted! No, I don't do that kind of thing. I don't have body paints anyway, but as I was painting on double doors at about my eye level, the man came barreling through without thinking I might be on the other side. The brush was just inches away from his face!
