Yellow, gray and blueberry

The doors and trim have been sprayed Antique White, the soffit over the sinks has been brushed Monorail Silver, but before he mixed up the Amulet AF-365 for the bathroom wall, "Fast" Edy J. took a break for a fresh blueberry muffin and a visit.
We took this color and the
blue out of the granite.
Of course, it's hard to get
a true value in a photo.
Edy (that's how he spells his name, not Eddie) likes Minnesota a lot. He moved to nearby Chaska a year ago, after working in California for the past 20 years. He says he enjoys the lakes here. The snow? Whatever he said about that was somehow lost in translation. In California, he lived in San Bernardino County, and there painted tons of interiors in Indio, Palm Desert, 29 Palms, Big Bear and elsewhere.
We could tell he's held a brush before, the years of experience show. He's painting our master bathroom and bedroom from a palette of grays, with gold and blue highlights.
So far, the work is beautiful. We'll give you a final "Katie's List" score later on quality and price when the job is finished.
Meanwhile, we have to score The Masters.
