The Very Hungry Caterpillar

This is my first nursery that I painted. My sister who was a kindergarten teacher at the time loved the book The Very Hungry Caterpillar and wanted the nursery to be theme of the book. So what I did was illustrated the different stages of the book and the fruits that the caterpillar ate and the ending where he became a butterfly. I think the best part of the room is the bright sun that brings all the illustrations to life.

Since this was my first nursery, I was a bit overzealous and painted the ceiling with clouds and a blue sky which took more effort than painting the whole room. My nephew grew up to love that room and the book. I would show him this youtube video all the time http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HpISHA8Fs4w and he loved it!
