Yep, he's extremely talented. We had some great conversation while he was here. I'm looking forward to working with him. (He's painting an incredible mural on my dining room ceiling).

You can check out preliminary sketches of the basic idea on his website.
We've already changed the layout a bit, so the sketches aren't completely accurate, but you can get the general idea.

Wow! Those sketches look great. I'm so jealous you're getting an orrery, I was just thinking this weekend how I would love to have one, either an antique or self-made.

Also: It's invigorating to become real. I highly recommend it. Especially when it entails spending time with KarlEd, partner Chris, and Karl's mom.
The house is a fabulous labor of love, and I'm honored to be part of it. And we clicked on so many levels while brainstorming on the mural. Thanks, Karl, for a good visit.
Web updates next weekend.

"Just to be clear: the orrery will be painted. Trompe l'oeil."
Oh, good. I'm sure it will look great, but I want one of the actual gadgets to ticker around with. So I'm no longer jealous. Posts: 6316 | Registered: Jun 2003
