wall color
If it is a light color I would think it would look OK, but it will make your room look smaller. How about one wall in a dark color and a contrasting color on the walls. Make a stencil and put clouds on the ceiling. I did this in my kitchen.
depends on if you want people's eyes to be drawn to them or not. if you want the beams to blend in, paint them the same color as the rest, if you want it to make a statement, paint them a different color. the more different the color, the more it will stick out.

What kind of dried paint? What is under the paint on the ceiling? ....on the metal?
It helps to have the same paint that was used to paint the ceiling in the first place. Next best option is knowing the exact color and product the paint was in. Next to impossible is buying a can of "ceiling paint" and using that. There are way to many different shades and sheens of ceiling paint to guess. Thin out the paint approx one ounce of water or thinner, depending on the paint base, to eight ounces of paint. Brush or roll the area that is being touched up, then feather out the edges of the paint so that it blends into the existing paint. Feather out means to spread the paint along the edge of the touch up area into the surrounding area so that the touch up doesn't have a hard edge.
In my opinion just leave the ceiling white. If you paint it the same color as the walls it makes that space seem smaller or enclosed like a box.

Assuming you want to cover up the purple so you can start over: buy the type of paint that covers water stains, deep colors. Kilz makes a paint that does that. Then, paint over that with the color you do want.
