Mural showing jungle animals

This mural was painted at the end of 2005 in a house near Newport. It is in a boy's bedroom and he requested a jungle scene with fierce-looking animals. The mural covers one complete wall, plus a snake on a branch on the opposite wall, above the boy's bed!

The animals are gridded up from photographs, but the rest of the mural was drawn freehand using a variety of photographic material as starting points.

Unfortunately, this picture has part of the mural obscured by a desk and TV, but it does give a better view of the mural than the picture below in other respects (note that the wall steps back about 9 inches one quarter of the way from the right edge)
