This was an Arts Week project where each year group chose their favourite Roald Dahl book to illustrate.  Their drawings formed the basis of the mural.  As usual, I chose as many of the children’s drawings as possible so that we could have a very fun packed mural.  Lots of hard work as the design was action packed so it was quite a challenge to fit it into the Arts Week!

These are some of the original designs I used.  I have the finished design in my head as I place the pictures.  Below are my line drawings and coloured versions which I show to the school prior to the start of the project on how the mural might look.

Here is a ‘stitched’ computer version  of part of the mural – it does look very close to the original design.  I hope to have a proper image of the mural in situ after Easter! 

Here also are lots of images of the mural in progress:

Here is the mural in situ in the library.
