Ok, obviously not writing this post last Thursday. I can’t believe it’s been a week! Thursday was a long day of gilding and cleanup. Since we were (unfortunately) working with the wall white, which was, as Aviva put it so well, dark clear, it took 4 or 5 coats to actually clean up anything… And the gilding – it looks really beautiful done – that’s what I’m focusing on… Wow I don’t think I’m going to plan on gilding that much any time soon – it looks great, but a lot of work.
I have so many photos to go through and put online, it’s going to take until early next week – I got back in town mid-afternoon last Friday, was out of town for a staff retreat in NOHO Monday through Wednesday, am in town today, and heading up to EC/IF for Rachel and Marcelo’s contemplative retreat tomorrow. Aviva just sent me another batch – great shots, including the room put back together with all the furniture in place – I wish I had time to post them now, but if I’m getting any sleep tonight I’ve got to get offline – so – early next week the rest of the photos will be up.
