Finally! My front door decorations almost restored!!! For Thursday Doors

The last major earthquake to be felt here on Lake Chapala (we were not at the epicenter) did in this arch over my door that leads onto the street from my front yard.  It had to be taken down and the painting around it done by master painter Jesus  Lopez Vega was lost as well. Here it is, rebuilt and restored.  He’s now painting my address with embellishment on the wall to the left and needs to paint the light cover. I’ll show more photos later. Wanted to show this for Thursday Doors, however, as I haven’t posted on it for some time.

 

HERE is a link that shows the door and arch before and during restoration.

About lifelessons

My blog, which started out to be about overcoming grief, quickly grew into a blog about celebrating life. I post daily: poems, photographs, essays or stories. I've lived in countries all around the globe but have finally come to rest in Mexico, where I've lived since 2001. My books may be found on Amazon in Kindle and print format, my art in local Ajijic galleries. Hope to see you at my blog.

      Fine.. had to do some work up on top reinforcing the joins between the three part of the house but all fine now. A few small interior cracks I’ll deal with later or not at all.

        Yay! Earthquake cracks can wait until the next time the house is painted if they are small cracks. It’s the big structural damage that needs to be dealt with quickly!
