The Power of Painting in Year 3,000: Part 2
Continuation of The Power of Painting in Year 3000 After experiencing a handful of turbulent months and a short period of grounding, it was time to move onto the next step.

After a stupendous battle like THAT we all had to take some time to breathe and absorb our surroundings.
