Emily is preparing for nursing school and wants to lighten her work load a couple of days a week.  SO with that said, there was a lot of fixing up to do.  Take a house that is almost a hundred years old and let teenage boys live in the room for the past 10 years and there may be a hole in the wall or some other rough boy type use.  I have several photos of the process as I updated my daughter on the progress.  One of the last ones had some touch up like cleaning the windows.  None the less, it is a photo.<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.gdpalmer.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/01\/IMG_20120121_205510.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.gdpalmer.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/01\/IMG_20120121_205510-312x430.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"IMG_20120121_205510\" width=\"312\" height=\"430\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-2563\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.gdpalmer.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/01\/IMG_20120121_205510-312x430.jpg 312w, https:\/\/www.gdpalmer.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/01\/IMG_20120121_205510-743x1024.jpg 743w, https:\/\/www.gdpalmer.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/01\/IMG_20120121_205510-108x150.jpg 108w, https:\/\/www.gdpalmer.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/01\/IMG_20120121_205510-400x550.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.gdpalmer.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/01\/IMG_20120121_205510.jpg 1819w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 312px) 100vw, 312px\" \/><\/a><br \/>\nPainting requires masking off areas and then unmasking.  Today there was another twist on painting.  One of the final things Jacob and I did for a homework assignment for his Spanish class was to put a light coat of paint on his mask.  Before painting there was several hours of paper mache action today.  The mask is an example of a Puerto Rico festival mask in the genre of the peacock.  He is in a group with two girls and he is going to let them paint the mask and put the peacock feathers on it.  The mask has a peacock on the front of it and the feathers will extend out to the peacock to create a nice feathery plume.<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.gdpalmer.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/01\/mask-2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.gdpalmer.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/01\/mask-2-425x430.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"mask-2\" width=\"425\" height=\"430\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-2568\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.gdpalmer.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/01\/mask-2-425x430.jpg 425w, https:\/\/www.gdpalmer.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/01\/mask-2-1013x1024.jpg 1013w, https:\/\/www.gdpalmer.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/01\/mask-2-148x150.jpg 148w, https:\/\/www.gdpalmer.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/01\/mask-2-400x404.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.gdpalmer.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/01\/mask-2.jpg 1713w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 425px) 100vw, 425px\" \/><\/a><br \/>\nOf course there was the inspiration for this mask.
