R.J.'s Dinosaur Mural


"Mom, we were wondering if you'd do a painting for us... Something to go over his bed... Maybe something with dinosaurs...?  It's a big blank wall."

I am on it!
It's a DREAMI (DRop Everything And Make It!) project!
One day everything is as normal as ever then... Surprise! ...all sorts of amazing happens!

  2. So glad you had a squirrel moment, and that it is for this reason, and whoa, did you ever chase a big fat old squirrel and caught him but good! It looks so so good on the wall above his crib! :-)

    1. Thank you so much, Sandra! It was a great reason to "chase a squirrel." I bet the mural will look even better with him in the bed below it... Hmmm... I wouldn't know because I never put him down when I'm there with him!!! :D

  4. What an honor, to be asked to paint a mural for your grandson to see every day! I would have dropped everything right then, too!

  5. What a sweet story of your grandson! Congratuations! Best reason ever for a DrEAMi. The mural is delightful—all the more striking for the way that you divided it up into 5 parts.

    1. Yes, sweet story... and sweet little one. We love him so!
      It was fun to do five separate paintings that came together to be one scene. I knew that a three canvas painting was called a triptych, but I learned that a five canvas painting is called a pentaptych! How about that for a vocabulary word!
