2016 Mural: Journey Through the Dominican Republic

We  have finally completed our lovely 2016 mural. This year's mural club was extended to 7th-12th graders, and we worked for a LONG time on brainstorming ideas, individual sketches, voting, and combining all of our ideas to create (and get approved) one large sketch:

Final Approved Sketch

After the sketch was approved, we got to work. Our mural combined different elements of the Dominican Republic. It has waterfalls, ocean, beach, architecture, foliage, flowers, trees and animals. We also chose to represent the Mirabal sisters in the form of 3 Dominican butterflies flying above the ocean.
