My immediate thought was, "I didn't know Judy liked abstract art!"<BR/><BR/>Of course, as I began to read your post it was obvious my initial conclusion was quite incorrect. However, given your predicament might I suggest the following....<BR/><BR/>Cut out the section and then divide it up into several 3x4 sections, frame them and then sell them for say $250,000 - $500,000 each cause I'm telling you....you've got some abstract art there girl!<BR/><BR/>Then take a portion of the several million dollars in sales and have someone else just do the whole damn thing!

So to make the wall look like the others that were plastered, my cousin put on a thin layer of thinned out spackling with a scrub brush to give it the same look. It worked!<BR/><BR/>I don't know what it is, but for the last several days I haven't been able to see the pictures of your posts older than two days or the ones in your sidebar... if I use Safari on my mac. Now, I can't get to the comments on Safari. I never had this come up before... at least it works with firefox just fine.
