This is the second day of the Art Car J-Term. We started the day by watching a video that showed many of the cars from one year's Art Car Parade to gather inspiration for the style we wanted to use. After that, we went out to the car to start painting the first layer of the car using a darkish green. We had 4 people (Asher, Leila, Ariela, and Oliver) working on the detailing with small brushes and 2 people (Jayla and Lily) working on the main parts of the body with paint rollers. This process did not take very long, about 45 minutes, and we took a long break afterwards while waiting for the paint to dry with lunch following. After lunch, we went to paint the second and final layer of the car. This didn't take very long but it was mid-day and therefore sunnier than earlier and you know what happens when the sun shines in Houston. After we finished painting the final coat, we went back inside to brainstorm what we wanted the car to look like. Yesterday we ordered floral foam to make the mushrooms, but, sadly, it didn't arrive today like it was supposed to and we weren't able to start carving them.
