Pack your bags and get ready for some Train-theme Murals, as well as a trip down memory lane.

He was a serious railway buff and thought I wouldn’t mind seeing some of the stuff he had. Wow! It was exactly what I needed to get me going! Even though my murals were cartoon style, I sketched out a train from one of the book covers and painted my first train in the Preschool classroom. It was an older looking train with lots of character. Keeping with our theme, I called it “The Grace Express.” Continue Reading →
