Prairie Center Residency: Final day, moving the pig: 12.05.2012

I drove back to Peoria this morning to do the final install. We first put the pig on this roller thing. Then rolled him down a ramp, carried him down the street. . . 

And then got him stuck in a doorway. We had to take the door off. BUT IT WORKED.

So, I drove back to Peoria after noon on Monday and stopped at Do It Best in Champaign before I left. I wanted to color-match myself and though their machine's don't do it, we did find a good approximation. Here are my tests.

I also ended up buying a quart of a pinkish color that I didn't end up using. I wish I had but I ran out of time. I may do this in the future, for ears and stuff. ??

Not bad, though, right? I feel like that's a pretty "me" color?

The pig is finished! At 3:30 am, I got the last coat of fleshy paint on him. DONE DONE DONE!! Actually, I think I finished before 3:30 but then did cleaning up, and maniacal cleaning and packing at home because it's hard to sleep after gearing up to finish something like this.
