Painting of a Different Sort - Kitchen

So my staycation has been taken up by cleaning the crawlspace, posting items on usedvictoria, gluing and priming models, and this...painting the kitchen. Above is the finished product.
 This is what we started with. Unlike the upstairs that was painted a dark beige (and several rooms still are) the downstairs is painted in a cacophony of colors. Don't get me wrong they are unique and happy colors but it is getting to be too busy.
 
 Here is the other wall.
 Here is the ceiling painted untinted white. This made a big difference.
 The walls were then painted in the untintinted white to cover the colors.
 
 The finished Kitchen from another angle. When it dried it looked lime green but it is loosing that tint as it dries.
 We used Benjamin Moore's Sundance tint (2022-50).
 Now for my last week I hope to finish in the crawlspace, paint models and watch some foreign sci-fi films I borrowed from the library. In other words...to relax.
