Here is a nursery mural I did last month for a baby boy due around Christmas. I just got pictures of the room with all the furniture in place. It turned out so great, a perfect room for one lucky little boy. And here is a rocket ship growth chart I also painted for the [...]

I went to see the Sendak show at the Contemporary Jewish Museum the other day. I had to whiz through because I was also there for a Litquake event, and I had Little Man with me (his first art exhibition! – this kid will be so much more cultured than I ever was). As a [...]

Earlier I posted the mural I painted in my son’s room, and some of the fun things my family made or bought for the room (quilt, gum paste characters, etc.), and many of you gave feedback, and wanted to see it when it was finished. Well, here it is. Now all I need to put [...]

I chose to paint a mural from Where The Wild Things Are on a wall of my son’s nursery because I love the story, I think Maurice Sendak is a children’s book genius, and I love nature and the moon in particular, so I thought a forest scene with the moon peeking through the window [...]

I just finished a piece commissioned for a Velveteen Rabbit themed nursery. I had posted my quick computer sketch of the project awhile back, but I love how the finished painting turned out! It’s 3′ x 4′ and I can’t wait to get a picture of it hanging in the baby’s room.
“Little Engine That Could” Nursery Mural
Posted in Uncategorized, tagged Art, boys room, mural, nursery, The Little Engine That Could on January 12, 2009 | 3 Comments »
Over the weekend, I painted this 89 square foot mural in a 2 year old boy’s bedroom. His favorite book is “The Little Engine That Could”, so they wanted something based on Loren Long’s illustrations. They also said he loves animals, so I took different elements from the book, and added the cows in the [...]
New Nursery Mural

I just painted my friend’s nursery. She wanted silhouettes of birds and to tie in the pattern and colors of the carpet. She won’t see it until she gets back after the new year. Can’t wait to see her reaction, and to see the room with all the furniture in place!

I’ve been foregoing other creative ventures lately because I’ve been so excited about this baby coming (I’m 9 weeks along). I got the itch to paint a mural in the baby room, and banged it out in a weekend. A forest scene from Where the Wild Things Are, one of my favorite children’s books. I [...]
