After three martinis and with one eye half shut it could be Venetian, but I pretty certain Canaletto would refuse this particular commission.
We need to do more than grade an ounce of earth here, a pinch of mud there.

This peculiar contraption is one half of a two leg attachment that the 'spacklers' use to reach the ceiling. Incredibly difficult to master I'm told - much like stilts I guess. Novices can be spotted by being black and blue with bruises.
But, the spackling is finished. Who cares about a bruise or two? I know, I'm horrible.
Empty paint pots. The significance is in the emptiness. I'm really horrible.
I picked up the external lights from the store in Hockessin yesterday. I'll post the photographs just as soon as London gives me the nod.
