acrylic on drywall
In 2007, I was given the opportunity to design a mural to liven up the atmosphere at VCU's/Medical College of Virginia's Pediatric Dentistry Clinic. For whatever reason my mind immediately turned towards a jungle theme and I went about sketching out the design. Once it was okayed, I asked a good friend and artist, Danielle Gant, to help with it's completion. I was not sorry.
Danielle's addition of the macaw, crocodile, and hippo to the piece were invaluable and in my opinion, amazing. What's more she spent only a few weeks, maybe a month, (5 hrs/week intervals) working on the piece before going to D.C. after graduating--huge contributions under limited time.
In this part of the mural you see the column that I transformed into a tree. The notion to do so seemed obvious to me, I simply painted a bark pattern and some leaves around the top molding.
