I have been wanting to show Jillian want she means to me for a while now and I wanted to be able to show her everyday.
So I came up with is idea to paint a mural on the back wall of our garage so she would see it everyday.
The story behind it is Jillian and I used to listen to Ben Harper a lot and he had a song called "You look like gold to me" But Jillian would sing it as "you look like home to me". Because Jillian rarely gets the words wrong in any song I pounced on this opportunity to tease her. Which I did a lot. From that time on it kind of became our anthem for when we were apart from each other. So it was only fitting that I created this.
Also I want to acknowledge one of the people I got some of my inspiration from. There is a artist called Espo aka Steve Powers who has a great art series in Philly called A love Letter For You or check him out on the documentary Beautiful Losers or on this site firstandfifthteenth. Anyway is work is very inspiring check it out if you get a chance.
I hope you guys like it.
But really I don't care if you do or don't as long as Jillian loves it. Which she does!!
I thought I commented on this earlier but this is super sick. I love everything you have done with your house!
