Because of the hot weather, Josie is working in her airconditioned studio. Look closely and you will see the black lines of the shapes in the left side of the mural.
|
The sepia tones are the beginning of images of the background. The open spaces in the left corner will be in color.
|
 |
 |
Shapes are starting to emerge for the right side of the mural. Also visible are the black lines of the rest of the shapes.
|
Note the little black and white image taped to the panel. It is an image from a newspaper article supplied by the Lindsay librarian, Deanna Pettus.

 |
Much more detail is now visible. The rocks in the foreground tell the viewer how rough the “roads” might have been.

6/21/2007- The first day of summer and Josie sends along an update. Major additions show in the back-ground and autos. Keep up the good work Josie!

The left side of the mural gets more detail in the background. Check out the dog...
|
Now we see detail in the two front boys. What are they watching?
|
 |
 |
Its a campfire! And, the scout standing up starts to show detail, is he helping the younger boys? The boys are building a fire to try to burn through the string and win a competition often held at Jamborees.
|
Looks like this half of the mural is complete. The standing scout represents the Eagle Scout candidate Josh Jones. The two younger boys represent Boy Scouts and Cub Scouts.

Once the painted Dibond panels are mounted on the frame on the wall the final step in painting is to blend the panel seams and paint the bolts.
|
Josie stands proud and with a big smile. Her efforts and talent show beautifully. Troop One is finished!
