: Border for Nursery

The border was part of a London Mural I did for a nursery in Encino.

The parents married in London and that was the reason to get some typical London themes such as a red bus, Harrods or the Tube.

The walls were painted in a light burberry brown which is a British color.

The whimsical characters were from a book called “This is London” from the 50s.

I had the chance to do this whimsical mural in Los Angeles for a lady who was originally from New York.

The mural for her nursery features New York from the Fifties.

Here you can see kids in a very long taxi.

On the main wall – right picture – I did Times Square but with contemporary advertisments!

The left picture shows a typical fire hydrant from NY.

A whimsical NY tree is surrounding the baby bed. Do you like it? If so go to http://www.boysandgirlsmurals.com/ and send me an email.

This is London – Mural

In the 50s Miroslav Sasek created awesome books with illustrations about big cities like London or NewYork. His books became very popular because they are easy to read and the pictures are just cute. Nowadays the books are attracting more interest then ever. they have become again very popular for moms or becoming moms.
In 2007 I was asked to do the first mural for a nursery after one of his books “This is London”. My client wanted certain pictures from the book and one feature was to do a window mural with the view on Big Ben and Westminster.

Another feature of the nursery mural was a border above the bed. I took the most out of the book and added some different looks like the Harrods bag or the punk with the guitar.

On the opposite side of the bed I painted a red bus which is so typical of London adn it is a MUST to have one. The girls in the line are wearing a school uniform as it was common (and it still is).
