How High is the Sky?
Exactly how high is
the sky above earth? It may surprise you to know that it is a mere 3 and half
hours from the earth to the edge of space. That is, if Amtrak were running
straight up and you could handle the spin action needed. 250 miles after
leaving terra firma you will be at the top of earth’s sky. However, today’s featured
sky murals are only 14ft – 16ft in height. A little climb up some scaffolding
and with the help of sea sponges, large chip brushes, latex paints, and
acrylics paints…tada! 2 lanais now feature the sky on their ceilings.
This ceiling is in a
courtyard lanai. It’s segmented into 3 areas. The immediate entrance, the
center portion-which is the largest section, and a separate area above an
outdoor living room seating section:
The sky being such a
popular request, I had back to back sky murals commissioned. So basically 2
weeks spent off the ground. This one was painted for a fellow artist. We had so
much hanging out together, mixing paints, chattering non-stop that it was more
like play than work. Which is how life should be!
