Bellevue Heights Nursery School Murals

Here are some of the murals I've painted at Bellevue Heights Nursery School. I tried to imitate Eric Carle's wonderful layering of colors in a hungry caterpillar reading corner.






These painted frames are put in the writing corner (hence the criss-crossing pencils). Poster's devoted to the "child of the week" are hung within the frames - showing off drawings and pictures of the lucky student!









The sunflowers are painted by the front door. I painted inches climbing up one stalk so that the teachers can measure students' heights easily.



























I painted a fun tree, full of birds and squirrels in the "Quiet Room". The grassy meadow makes a good disguise for ugly radiators.
