Today's Mural Project

Here is the process of something I did in a girl's Hawaiian themed bedroom today. I will be painting the palm tree next Saturday. I apologize for the not great photos, they are cell phone pictures. I will bring my good camera next week. I just bought a projector and it works great, I like using it because it helps to get the design exactly right. I think this matched well with the approved design. I really enjoy painting murals, I would really like to do more children's murals.
