Painting stuff
Painting signs, walls and pictures and anything else that may need a lick of paint..
Its great to be practically doing stuff with the paint and paintbrush as creative work these days is often computer based and a rare percentage of any job is the actual painting. So It was exciting to just go at a blank wall with a brush and see what happened…
We painted a mural in The Upper Room, a room soon to be a café area at the HQ for the IcFEM staff encouraging them to fellowship over lunch. We were asked to paint leaves and flowers.. so that’s pretty much what we did.
Again so many popped in to visit us and to encourage us as we worked…We asked the IcFEM staff to contribute to our wall by painting a flower.. they could approach it anyway they liked 
.....and it was just lovely to see the results.
For some this unveiled creative talent that any didn’t know they had and they enjoyed their chance to add their mark to this artistic project.
It would be great to be able to take the time to train some of these people and give them confidence to be able to colour the many drab walls that Kenya has and brighten them up with a splash of their imagination.
As we painted the requests came flooding trough from people asking us to paint their house, school, church or office.. if only we had more time.
