The Sky-Puzzle Ceiling Mural

I painted this on the ceiling of my new room.  Just because I could.  Because I live in a co-op and can do such things.  Although my arms killed after 3 days of vertical painting!  How did Michelangelo do it???
It's kind of hard to get it all in one picture.  FYI, that light fixture is brand-spanking new.  They replaced it near the end of my painting, but I had to repaint some pink they plastered over.  Luckily, the guy was really nice and didn't touch the puzzle piece so precariously near it.
Close-up.  When I first painted the lines, the puzzle pieces fit together better, but after the 2nd and 3rd coats, they didn't really anymore.  It messes with your mind!  They're the pieces that YOU THINK will fit, BUT DON'T.

I like to look up at this from my bed.
