If you'd like to have a vacation in Florida, come on down, pick a wall, do what you want and I'll entertain you in return. Your work is absolutely beautiful!

I am speechless! Alla has certainly showered you with the gifts of artistic ability!

Absolutely phenominal!

Thank you all.

Mustang, yes, Morocco is its own country, LOL. Think Marrakech, Casa Blanca, and Atlantic Ocean. For Egypt, think pyramids and Mediterranean, Red Sea and Nile. But hey, they're both in the Middle East!
Soon, I will know the differences between their foods. I'll let you know.

Oh, by the way, funny about the Nazis supposedly blowing off the nose. My husband thought it was Napolean.
It's been gone longer than both of those eras.

Incredible!!

I can't even draw a stick figure. Seriously. You should be very proud of yourself.

ps...I'd love to visit the restaurant!

Terry, just curious what the dimensions of the wall are and how long it took you to paint it. I painted a mural on a wall in my dining room a la Rufus Porter style and almost broke my neck but it is very different in technique and not nearly as incredible as yours.

Thanks Abbey.
Suz, I confess I had to look up Rufus Porter. Aha! folk artist. Neat.
The mural is roughly 4 ft high (above the chair railing) and about 20 ft. long. It took me 2-1/2 wks. I will never do one that fast again. It really wrecked my neck and shoulders. Not that I don't like seeing my husband nearly every day... just that I'd rather go out to eat than get my neck cracked and get electrical stimulant.

I know what you mean, Terry. I did mine only on weekends but they were long days and I was practically paralyzed at the end of each day.
