Last month I went back to Arkansas to paint another Pediatric Plus, my fourth. It was in Van Buren which is beautiful and I had a blast painting in a new setting and meeting new people.
The schools are special needs daycares and I paint their big active play therapy room. It includes four small therapy rooms within the big room.
They wanted me to include things that were special to Van Buren, so I included their famous train and the awesome downtown area including referencing some of their iconic old buildings.

This is a new daycare in Garland that was designed by my amazing friend Uttara Patil. She did the design for the whole remodel for this school and everything. She is so talented!
I painted the murals for it, as well as all these awesome and huge planets that were suspended from the ceiling in the multipurpose room.

A fun and fast mural for a little boy's bedroom. The idea is to add black little shelves with super hero figurines on top of the buildings as well as a batman nightlight where the yellow beam is.
I think it's gonna be really cute when finished.

I tricked my daughter into believing reading was her own idea. Once she picked up Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone, her life was magically transformed.
