TRUSTING THE VISION, WE SAIL ON

The Capt. took a few days of well-deserved respite then proceeded to clear coat the left side.

After several days of me contemplating the piece with only the left tendril, I turned it over to the divinity of inspired communication to succeed in letting him ‘see’ the lilting, horizontal curve I pictured for the right side. I decided that if I failed, that was a sign that we were indeed done. Not to be, however, as the Capt. returned once again with exactly what I intended and so he began.

Once he drew his pattern on the wall, he made one ‘as-built’ change to superimpose the 1” squares over the larger pattern, tapering into the lilting horizontal curving curlieque. It makes my heart sing . . .

And finally, the unveiling of the entire work of art . . . and on the “7th day”, we said IT IS GOOD.
