My Creative Space - mural progress

Here's the progress of a nursery mural I painted this week -

It's not finished yet - and my camera battery was flat before I finished, but I was so keen to try this animation thing! I've got another two hours or so to do to finish it tomorrow, so I'll update the animation when it's done.
NOTE: it's now done and I've replaced the original animation with the finished one.

The lovely client is having a baby boy in October, and wanted a big autumn tree. Through the progress of the day we added quantities of things that will hopefully be a nice distraction during nappy changes - one dog, two frogs, three rabbits, ... ten bees, twelve ladybugs, etc...

Lots to do today, so I'll post again about the special bits of the mural after I go back with my recharged camera.

This weekend the boys and I are working on Mad Hatter and Fantastic Mr Fox costumes for bookweek. If you have any suggestions for either of those two, please let me know!

  3. Love the work in progress shots. I really must work out the html for the multiple images. It's a brilliant way of showing your mural progressing. Love the soccer ball stuck in the top branch.

    And all I did was go to Target today! Holey, moley you set a cracking pace. Did the client mind the girls? How long did it take? I painted a similar tree one in a classroom in East London once and I haven't thought of it in years. Thanks for the memory!

  12. Good Lord! What a great job! I can see why you suggest painted plants rather than potted plants. It looks wonderful.
