Faux Mosaic Studio Floor
Marty's plywood studio floor looked pretty bad. She needed to create
something inspirational, so what better than a painted floor that
looked like mosaic tiles? She drew a 5' x 8' rectangle on the ply-wood
and painted it gray to simulate grout. Then, painting in each little "tile"
with a paintbrush, she created her faux mosaic floor, bordered it with
blue and gave it a few coats of polurethane varnish. Perfect!

Little Miss Muffet
A landscape full of neighboring Nursery Rhyme characters runs all the way
around Kenison's bedroom...7 depictions .

Little Bo Peep
Bo Peep's sheep are running around the corner past Humpty Dumpty's wall
next-door, in a 16th century country landscape full of familiar childhood
Nursery Rhyme characters. Some of the sheep are running toward Mr. Dumpty's
wall, and the rest are escaping in the other direction toward the corner
shoe-house. A nice old woman lives there with many, many children.

Twinkle Little Star
The top half of Kenison's bedroom has been changed into a rural 16th century,
English landscape which wraps the countryside all the way around the room,
and Nursery Rhymes are depicted as 6 neighboring farms.
A little girl wishes upon a star. The big wishing star has pearlized paint, while
all of the little stars glow in the dark.

The Old Woman in the Show
Here you see where Bo Peep's sheep are running--to the corner neighbor's house,
where a very nice old lady lives in a huge shoe with all of her many of children!
The sun is setting (so that the artist can conveniently paint the transition from
the day-time vignettes ("Miss Muffet," "Humpty Dumpty," and "Little Bo Peep"), to
the night ("Twinkle Little Star," and "The Cow Who Jumped over the Moon").
