Hey Farmertan, I used 6 T-8 Florescent 4 bulb fixtures, they will fire(light) down to 0 degrees if you don't have heat.  I have a 26x24' garage.  You may be able to just use 2 and get good light.  They cost about 50 dollars US each without the bulbs.

Your ceiling looks sweet!

I get them from a local Electrical supply, yes the 4' tubes are much easier to handle.  Don't buy anything without an electronic ballast, otherwise the fixture will hum you right out of the garage.LOL

 Get another coat on the nails and joints,, then a drywall texture bordin34. Finish with some enamel paint and your shop will look great. :stirpot: ;)
