3 LONG-TERM CARE HOME MURAL-MAKEOVER - FINALE (15 Snapshots)

Ok guys!  This is it!  The grand finale!  Let's now see how everything looks after all the renovations have been done, starting with that wall mural across from the dining room, a bit from the upstairs lounge adjacent to this wall and then working our way around to the main hallway, elevator and back!

We're almost done guys!
Remember the wall with the 4 doors two of which were done?  Now it's time to see what's going on with the other 2 plus the final touches around the elevator.


Remember that mustard-looking colour housekeeping door?

It's suppose to be some street alley depicted on it, but for now this is all we have of it.

We'll get back to it later.  Let's check out what they have beed doing around the elevator....

Darlene's assistant painted some nice pots of flowers and vines around the elevator giving it such a warm and inviting effect.

It had been roughly 3 weeks later when Darlene and her assistant started working on the other side of the hallway - including the elevator.

These are a few pictures showing the wall before she started working on it.

3 A LONG-TERM CARE HOME MURAL-MAKEOVER: PART 1 OF 4 (25 Snapshots)

We were visiting a long-term care home when we noticed some changes going on. They were getting the walls prepped for some painting, but not just any kind of painting.  A mural makeover was about to take place!

Darlene was the artist who took on this project, with the aid of her partner.  It took them roughly over a month and a half to complete this challenging task. It would have been shorter she said but she was working on other projects at the time, and finding the appropriate time to do this kind of work in a long-term care home, (when residents were asleep in bed), proved to be an extra challenge in itself.
