---Pablo Picasso
While my painting wasn't of a picture it was painting that opened a door and is served as a stepping stone to other things. Paint brings renewed life to things, color trends change, color schemes change but when you come right down to it color has meaning to each of us for different reasons.
As we started the paint color selection process, we tried to keep in mind colors that spoke to us for lack of a better word. In life I personally like to wear a bold splash of color, I was even quite surprised at myself when I had pink highlights put in my hair one time and another they were purple, but that is another story. In the house, Bill and I tend towards earth tones with a little bold here and there.
Here are a few before, in process and after pictures of the house:

Looks like I need to take some more photos of the other rooms but this is a start. It's been lots of work and lots of paint but the house is starting to have a few touches to make it our home.
