IMPROVISED MUTATIS GLASS DOOR. April 2021

Hi,
this is a funny one.
This week during my time at the fire prevention job I had a day where I was based at the offices to do odd jobs because the weather wasn´t good to work out in the woods and no prospects of bushfires in the pouring rain. So I was given some paint and had to paint a few corners here and there for he upkeep. We are currently based in a very old building that used to the military barricades and it is all in for a total refurbishment but as bureaucracy is slow in Spain we have to make the best of what we have for the time being.

Anyway, the man in charge of giving us the tasks knows I´m also a painter and asked me if I could work out a simple nice way to cover the glass on the doors because both the bathroom and changing room for women needs to be more private.
We are only 3 women in comparison with the 46 men doing the same job.
So I went to the shelf with all the paints to see what was available and found some white and beige paint and a pot of blue tint. So I went to my car where I had some paintbrushes by chance and went up to the glass and started painting its background in tones of blue and white acrylic enamel paint. And then thought it would be quite quick to do a very simple Mutatis plant to decorate a little.

Then I went on to do the changing room glass also.

And some close ups of the second one:

It was fun to once again match my two jobs into one. Its a way of making our space a little more personal, bringing creativity into what might seem a dull job.

I hope you had fun with this little episode. I did.
Best Wishes to you all.
