Mrs. Appleton noticed my work building a retaining wall. She stopped by and asked if I could paint her shed.

Step 3: Fig.3 shows that a painters tarp was used to protect the cement and the grass area near the shed wall. One coat of exterior white primer was painted over the white semi gloss paint before applying the light brown exterior paint provided by Mrs. Appleton.

Step 4: Fig.4 and fig.5 shows the edge cutting. Edge cutting is painting the edges of the shed wall because the paint roller can not do a good job or rolling near the edge.
