This is the begining of a wall mural I painted in my son's bedroom.


I decided I wanted to do a jungle scene with playful monkeys.
My son was born in "The Year of the Monkey" and my husband really likes monkeys.

I first sketched the scene, using a regular lead pencil. I used acrylic paints and only used a small handful of different colors.

It took me a day to paint, but it was well worth it. My son says good night to the monkeys every night before he goes to bed...


This is awesome Sam! I love that you put the in-process pictures up here. I think it's cute that Vincent says goodnight to the monkeys! You're so talented!
