Nursery Mural Update

My friend Tom and I finished drawing most of the mural yesterday. Today I started painting and got about half way finished. I think that it looks really cool, hopefully the baby will too!

Nursery Mural

I've always hated murals. However, now that I'm painting one in my son's nursery that is going to kick ass I guess I can't say that I hate murals anymore. Here's a few preview pictures. Yeah, I know, the photos are sideways. Deal with it, they're artsy.

I was reflecting on the work that I did for the Igloo Show (still up at Black Maria Gallery until March 22nd) and noticed that I had been putting pieces of jewelry hanging from tree branches into several of the paintings. I'm not quite sure why I did that, or what the imagery means, but I decided to do some further exploration of the jewelry theme in my sketchbook for a week. Each day I did a sketch that had to include jewelry somehow. Here's the first one, with more to come each day (hopefully), and a different theme each week.
