Hello my name is Brenda! I have teamed up with my classmate, Rebecca Loredo, to work on this amazing senior project called Painting Smiles. We want to paint a mural in a children center so that we can get the kids involved and make them happy. This blog will document the progress and step-backs along the way of making Painting Smiles a reality! :)

So far, we have been talking a lot about the sketches we've been doing but here is the actual picture so that y'all can get an idea of what we have been talking about. This design is our original idea. The left side is the night and the right side is the day. On the left, the stars represent dreams children might have and on the right we have example of those wishes. (Playing sports, reading, and the all time favorite FLYING!!)

This design here is our second one. The same concept still applies; the left is the day, the right is the night, and the children are just doing things they enjoy. The main difference on this second one is that the stars aren't there. So instead of having the children's dreams we have some of their favorite hobbies.

We already presented these two designs to Janet and David, from the Boys and Girls Club and they already picked one. It might not be exactly like the ones y'all see here but it will definitely be better! :)

  1. Is the new design a hybrid of both? I like the the night part of the first and the day side of the second. It's creativity week this week so I know you and Becca are working on the actual mural now, is there a possibility of you posting photographs of your progress online so we can see how the project is coming along?
