It’s almost time for paint, and I have to get it right the first time.
Really, I have to stop putting myself in these situations, but when the project demands it, I can’t seem to let the small details go. With the phrase, “Don’t let perfect be the enemy of good”, ringing in my ears I will pick up the paint gun tomorrow and make this happen.
Getting here though has been no small feat. After grabbing the piece from Wisconsin and then redesigning the pedestal, fabrication the right way has taken longer that expected. Making sure the hardware was hidden is the most important aspect of my design in this addition. The results of my efforts have brought a great seamless lift to this form and no distraction from the art itself.
Now with days left I have found an industrial paint that I know will stand the test of time and keep the vibrant color that I want for this piece. Wish me luck.
