Seahorses, coral, and more dinosaurs!

This one is a part of the series of elongated canvases for between windows or above doors.

I had people ask for years before I actually started this series a couple of years ago.

They began as 4 x 24-inch canvas, then we expanded them to 6 x 24-inch.

It gives the effect of the elongation with a width that is easier to create on.

Anyway, this is today's painting!

This is the final stage design consisting of a dozen flats that can be repainted from year to year.

The triceratops in place with its background panels.

The tyrannosaurus in place on opposite side of the foyer.

Velociraptor "Blue"

Long neck in place.

I still cannot imagine it is all finally done, and the children are enjoying them.

Some of them seemed in awe, others were non-plussed.

Oh well, they're done, and they have homes.

At least temporarily!

Two will stay at the church, maybe three.

The others will go to the Daphne public library and may make a tour around Baldwin County.

Sundays set up took over 7 hours to complete.

It was a late night.

Many hours, many hands, many hearts are in this, the biggest Summer Surge I have designed to date!

I am forever grateful to everyone who lifted a brush, cut a leaf, taped a leaf, painted a panel, painted a dinosaur or a leaf.

Those who prayed for us, but most especially the parents that allow their children to come and learn a little about Jesus!
