Another mural update!! (Picture heavy!)

Now that I got the last post out of my system (heh!), onto a much happier topic! Another mural update! Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay!!

WARNING: VERY PICTURE HEAVY, NOT DIAL-UP FRIENDLY.

One wall of the entire most of the mural!

The other wall!

A view of both walls the hall! The guy is Dave--who is also awesomecakes. I can talk with him for hours. ^^

The first panel on the left wall. I LOVE this panel. Hee! See the sky? Purdy, yes?

More sky!

Second panel! See the eagles?!

These guys took FOREVER. I went through several drawings before I found the right poses. This was probably the hardest part of the entire mural. I am so happy to have them painted. ^^

I'm ready for my close up! :D

Here's the owl again, for awesome's sake! He's by far the most popular part. ^^

*sings* Blue skies~!

Look how much as changed!! I'm seriously starting to think of this as [info]ladyofshadow's panel. LOL. Got rid of the eagle, since he was too distracting and I get to accentuate the waterfall now. ^^

It's Mount Herbie! Named after a resident who is dying of leukemia. He has two hip replacements and walks like a zombie, but he's ALWAYS cheerful. Never fails to put a smile on someone's face, which is incredible, because he's in so much pain. He's a genuinely good person. *wibbles*

Sky!

img_0100.jpg

I've been working graveyard shift so I can paint behind the fire door, for continuity's sake. Woot!

img_0101.jpg

Turning around, we see the eagles nest! Very popular, because there are all sorts of theories on not only what the eagles are thinking, but on who is the girl and who is the guy. Hee!

img_0102.jpg

Pretty floral!

img_0103.jpg

I painted some of this sky, so this update isn't helpful. ^^


img_0104.jpg

Skipping the other two panels, since nothing's changed with them! This is the front panel on the right side. Pretty!!


img_0105.jpg

I've re-painted his eye! Nifty, eh?

img_0106.jpg

This is the fish! I've actually finished painting the fish last night, so I have to take another picture. It came out AWESOME! ^^

img_0107.jpg

But this is my favorite part of the mural by far, for some reason. I just love the pose, I think. Isn't it purdy?

*happy sigh*


And that's it for now! More updates soon as I take pictures tomorrow. ^^

EDIT: I also did this completely random photo the same day:

It looks really good!
Thanks! I'm trying. ^^
Splendiferous!
Hee! I've always loved it when you say that. I love it even more now, though, because you told me it was a real word!
^.^ Did you consider incorporating the doorways into the art?
I would, but then I'd never leave this place. And I'm not getting much paid for it anyway--waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah! Although, even if I got all the money in the universe, it still has to pass state approval. It's a state facility, so... lots of red tape. Heh!
Honey, it looks fantastic. I adore the owl. It looks so real it could fly out.
Hee! The owl is a favorite, I have to admit. Everyone loves him. ^^

*kishies!*
