Working like crazy to get this mural finished in time for the photo session organised for friday. (The principal told Healthways -who supplied the grant that it was alreadyy finished!!!!) I was working -outlining and patching up mistakes- until 6;30 tonight and 7pm yesterday transferring more of the children’s drawings onto the wall. Tim recons that there is about 65 square metres of mural. On brick which is revolting to paint on. If you ever get persuaded to one insist on the wall being rendered first!!!!!!

Wow! That's massive! We're doing a mural for the canteen in art & design class and we've had so many teachers walking past wanting us to do one in their area of the school. I don't think they quite know how much work is involved!

That's right, I'm sure they don't! Yes just whip it up in a week or two...

OMG! You have done an incredible job. It looks fantastic. I love the canteen especially... the pumpkins under the window.

I'm thinking when it's all done, you will be needing some more hangout time in that hammock. Enjoy!

It looks fabulous! The children's drawings are gorgeous....and what an enormous undertaking.
Congratulations!
