Very bright clear golden, in sunlight a bit strong, but in evening light, rich and warm. Two coats, about half the room done, will finish tomorrow. He's very happy with it, the grey hidden. And not just one grey, but two walls are a very blue grey, the other two a slightly different more purple grey. Both dull and depressing, tastefully ugly. The orange is cheerful and intense.
Didn't cover well, took me a while to realize why. The other walls were in a matte surface, this room was in a semi-gloss or satin. We aren't picky perfectionists, so the increase in light is enough. But a couple of coats, and it's much improved. The rest tomorrow. Dylan very pleased, wishing we'd done this sooner.
But sometimes it takes getting really sick of something to appreciate the change.
Like taking a year or so to decide on a tattoo.

'sometimes it takes getting really sick of something' - yes. I have a hard time envisioning home org or decor solutions. But once what I want becomes clear to me it feels easy to make it happen.

Oh, precisely. Also amazing how much dust accumulates.
