It's chalk and chalkboard....Or is it?


 To Chalk or not to Chalk....

This is a little boy nursery, who is yet to arrive.  I was given the idea by  the client and designer,  but they wanted owls instead of lovebirds which the inspired picture showed.  They wanted baseballs and hot air balloons incorporated into the design. The room has two full walls, two doors, and the little space above the door that are all chalkboard paint.  The other two walls are white.  They were also going to be incorporating red and yellow into the room.  So I painted the trees, the owls and the hot air balloons, in paint made to look like it was chalked, but the kids ( there is also a precious two year old)  will be able to "play" too.  I love this idea for any child's room, nursery, playspace, school classroom, workspace.... you name it. I truly enjoy
painting this kind of fun space! 
Door Wall where crib will go

 To the left is the close up image of ball throwing owl
 In this image, the two little baby owls look on to see who gets to catch

This guy is hoping it comes to him.

These little owls have either taken leave of the game or they are just in time...


They are on the white wall, so the paint is charcoal.
