Today I started and finished my 2nd painting project for my customer who hired me to do some work in her children's bedrooms. This room is for her little boy and you can certainly tell from looking at his room that he loves race cars and sports cars. Even his lamp has Corvettes all over it and his clock is a Harley Davidson clock with a different Harley for every hour. What little boy wouldn't LOVE a room such as his?
There is a small alcove in this room where the head of the bed goes. The alcove has black on the upper portion of the walls, a funky geometric border and the lower walls are covered in wallpaper that looks like the silver metal that pickup toolboxes are made of. The remaining walls carry the same border but the bottom wallpaper is silver and red stripes and gray upper walls. It really is very cool!
Can you tell which "Fast and Furious" movie this boy is a big fan of?
He wanted the initials DK on one wall to stand for "Drift King."
When the little boy first showed me his room he advised me not to look too long at the border because it might hurt my eyes. So, consider yourself forewarned!
For the little boy's room all I had to do was paint some words in silver on a black wall. I have one more project to do for this family, but won't post any pictures of that project until it is complete. My customer wants the next project to be a surprise for her family and I don't know if anyone who knows them reads here. That project will be underway soon!
