color and more color

Like I said last night, I've painted the north and west walls a claret red - a deep, deep red with a hint of purple.  The other brick-red like colors I was looking at just turned into a brown mud under dim or little light, which is what my room is at night once I move from the desktop computer to the laptop in bed.

here's the color:





Neither of these are precisely accurate for some weird reason.  Picture something between the two (I'll post actual pictures in a day or two)

the trim around the window, around the door and around the two walls and closet is a deep black

the stencil is in Americana acrylic paint: zinc

the stencil pattern is "iron lattice"

the sage green of the east and south wall work really well with the claret color and the shelves up high for my action figures are a buttermilk cream color that also works well with both colors.

I'm pleased
