Come and watch the flat grow: Final Edition

Welcome to our fully rented flat! Thanks for renting and decorating the apartments.
It has become an amazing building with many different people and animals living in it. There is a lot of joy and happiness, but also strange things are happening in the building...
Enjoy watching the work of 25 enthousiastic people. Scroll down to see all the artwork seperately or visit http://www.flickr.com/photos/difference25
Hope to see you on the first of May to join us with a new theme.

Theme of April: Who is living in the flat?

This month's theme I wanted to be about houses. When I discussed the plan with Gerda she came up with the idea to make an apartment building in which everybody can draw their own window scene. Great idea. Thank you Gerda!
What can you do?
You see an apartment building with 25 windows in it. In this window you can make your window scene. You can make a window with plants and a cat sitting in the window, for instance, or you can draw a man with a telescope watching the horizon. Just use your imagination: who is living in your flat? 
The size of the window is a proportion of A4 landscape.
To make it special you can "rent " your own apartment by posting a comment or by sending me an e-mail with the number of the flat you want to be yours! There will be a sign with your name on your apartment. For example: if I rent flat number 3 there will be a sign on flat number 3: "Rented by Roos".

When you send in your artwork it will be placed in your own apartment the very same week. File your artwork this way: your name_flat (in my case roos_flat). 
Every wednesday of this month I will update the picture of the building. Don't forget to watch and find out who is going to be your neighbour! Each week you will see the flat block grow.
I hope a lot of renters will come. The recession will not be of any influence, because all the flats can be rented for FREE!
Hope to see you in the apartment building.
