I helped with a mural for a nursery this past weekend.

The mum-to-be is a high school science teacher. She wanted to feature famous scientists she admired, done in caricature style. The models are based on a variety of sources I found online.

Scientists mural

From left to right: Copernicus (astronomer), Neil deGrasse Tyson (astro-physicist), Ada Byron King (also known as Ada Lovelace) (mathematician and possibly the first computer programmer), Albert Einstein (theoretical physicist), Sir Issac Newton (physicist), Charles Darwin (biologist/naturalist).

It is actually more of a painting than a mural, painted on four foot by five foot canvas (more portable than had we painted on the wall).
