School rainforest jungle mural

 

This was a large jungle mural painted in a primary school in a little village called Vigo which is near Dartford in Kent.  It is painted in their school hall and took two weeks to complete.

I had to use a scaffold tower for this mural as a majority of it was up high.  I also had to contend with painting around the stage lighting rigs and the climbing gym.

 

This next jungle rainforest mural is in a corridor of an infants school.

This jungle rainforest was painted in a corridor in an infants school in Leicester.  It's all hand painted on both walls and goes up to 12ft high!
