Impressionist House
Here's how I want to paint the outside my house, with a soft mustard yellow starting at the roofline and a dusty mauve starting at the ground. Then the two colors blend together in the middle, for a gradation effect, maybe with a pale sage green trim.
What do you think? Will I be run out of the neighborhood? I want it to look like an impressionist painting, with large brushstrokes showing. I've never seen this done before, but I think it would look interesting. I like the idea of using the house as a huge canvas.

My advice is don't do it. Not that it's not a great idea, but it's a distraction -- shiny object.
Thanks for that advice, Lyn. It would take quite a bit of time away from my painting, given that it's a rather large project! I kind of got it out of my system just by designing it in Photoshop and blogging about it here.
