Flickr Finds: Hand-Painted Bedroom Wall Mural

01-26-bed-1.jpg
Talented artist Harry Swartz-Turfle sent us flickr photos of the mural he painted for his daughter-to-be. Harry was inspired to use a 1940's color scheme and simple shapes because newborns only see simple, high-contrast images. He painted four colors including the coral background. More photos, including close-ups, below the jump...

I love this idea! To sweet for words... I would have loved to have had a room painted like this when I was little!

Thanks for letting me post a comment!
