Lost me...are the pics of paintings on walls for his room...or a newborn as stated in your first post? Or are they one and the same and child now almost two? Either way...great characters. My daughter painted characters on the walls of her friends daughter nursery...stayed that way for almost 6 yrs.....quite labor intensive.......now they have stickies that can be put on walls..cute idea!

Thank you all for your nice compliments!
To Geri B.: Liam is two now. In the photo, he is 5 months old. The photos are of Liam's nursery. I began to paint it when my daughter was pregnant, but she gave birth before it was finished, so I stopped painting and Liam moved into the room. I did not have a chance to complete the paintings the way I wanted to, and I explained that so you all would know that I had intended to add more detail to the flowers, etc. And, yes, it is labor intensive, but I had a lot of fun doing it, and I am repaid for my efforts each time I see Liam trying to interact with the animals in the room. I originally bought "stickies", but hated the way they looked and I imagined Liam peeling them off the wall when he was old enough. Besides, I have dabbled in oil painting and decorative painting with acrylics, and this was a natural fit for me. Sharon
