Magical Tree House

These are photos of a room I painted about a month ago. I had so much fun. I kept thinking that this would have been my dream room as a little girl.
My challenge on this project was to design a room within which a four year old girl and a two year old boy would both feel at home. In a year or two the boy will move out and a younger sister will move in... at which time the murals can be 'Girled' up a bit. For now the tree house and fairies are on the girl's side and there are a number of animals on the boy's side... including a moose which I didn't manage to get a good photo of. Once the brother moves out I will add flowers (both growing and as garlands - around the moose's antlers perhaps), more fairies and a bit more color.
You can see that I chose to again use my new tree technique. As with the Erie Goddard School murals I did the leaves in two layers. The first being very vague green smears over which I stencil leaves. More often than not I am creating these stencils using xerox copies of actual leaves. I am loving the effect.
I hope you enjoy the photos!
