Dear BeRúThiel …
… I actually considered taking out the window, placing it over the painted sketch and do the thing as one piece. I’m glad I didn’t. I created about seven or eight „Puzzleteile“ (and the leaves) and combined them on the window. Retrospectively I’m glad I didn’t do the whole-window-version. It couldn’t but end in a […]
Update on the bathroom project
Windowcolor is a bitch! I remember now why I did not do more projects with that stuff. It takes a lot of time. You do the outline, you let it dry for some hours, you fill the spaces, you let it dry for some hours, you correct some details, you let it … Also the […]

So I thought about doing some kind of underwater, deep sea, landscape thingy with lots of fancy fishes, jellyfish […]
