Mural at Blidworth Oaks Primary School
I have just completed  painting several outdoor murals at Blidworth oaks Primary School. Each mural will represent a different area of Blidworth Village and will be painted/inspired by the style of a famous artists.



Leonardo Da Vinci representing the "Pit Wheels"
Cezanne representing "The Well"
Renoir representing "The School"
Turner representing "The Ponds"
Van Gogh representing "The Church"

Each class in the school has been named after a famous artist. The children will learn about their artist and then attend an innovation workshop where they will be given the opportunity practice their artists style of painting and contribute their ideas into the mural.

A further two murals will be painted. One will represent the sign of Blidworth that can be seen upon entering the village, the other mural will be a collection of children's paintings chosen from the innovation workshop and will be reproduced by the children themselves.
