Garden of...?

This mural was painted by several art students on the wall in the library in the school where I used to teach.  The models were an English and a math teacher.We were a pretty liberal school in some respects but I don't think they modeled in the buff...or did they?

Linking to Monday Mural

  1. It must be nice for the teachers to be immortilized in their school!

  3. Very creative, and very tolerant of the teachers to allow themselves to be used as a model for this type of a scene. My guess is that they are justifiably very popular teachers.

  4. There is not too much detail in the bodies - so I don't think they modeled in the buff. :)
    I love the naif quality. A really nice mural - must be some talented artists at this school!

    1. The Fine Arts Department is top drawer and the students regularly win local, regional, and national awards. Teachers are talented artists themselves. Wonderful department!

  8. I like the little mystery question at the end. I wonder if our Ms. Kate might have played a role in this Garden of Eden scene?
