Thanks alot you guys. I find ceilings so intimidating, give me walls, trim, crown moldings, anything but ceilings. Still kind of concerned about painting around all the track lighting and the drying factor. In the larger part of the L, that has no obstructions, does a person paint the whole length of the ceiling instead of say, a 6 foot square? I've been painting the whole length but maybe that's not correct? Also, this room has major windows and tons of light. Maybe I should go in the opposite direction, perpendicular to the windows? Oh hell.
(I.m not a beginner at painting, have worked for a company for the past 8 years and only now going it on my own. Previously, the guys on the crew always did ceilings).
Thanks again for any help. Char
