This and the following gallery pages would help you visualize how the artwork would appear on the walls of children's rooms.

# 108 TRILL IN THE CIRCUS

These girls are fearless, aren't they? But the lions learn to do their tricks when they are very young, like the three baby lions that we see jumping around. The girl holding a leash does not dare to use it on the lion she is riding. Would you? She thinks it is more interesting with it, but the baby lion, running near by, thinks it is a toy and wants to catch it.

He probably will, won't he?

#109 TROPICAL WATERS

Here is a variation of #101 "Sea Gardens". Instead of horizontally, the composition is to be placed on the wall vertically.

# 110 TREE OF LIFE

This symmetrical composition combines many birds perched on a tree. Symmetry brings a lot of harmony and peace to a room, providing that all elements are in balance. Tree of life is an old theme that is seen in art, but especially in tapestry and embroidery.

Here you see a very colorful interpretation of this same theme.

#111 DRUMS ARE FUN

The wolf Charlie is playing with his set of drums. He likes to sing at the same time, but his voice is rather unpolished. When he sings while playing the drums, nobody can hear him because the drums are so loud!

# 112 OCTOPuses DANCING

This family of octopi is celebrating the birthday of two of their babies (seen at the lower portion of the image). They are learning new steps for dancing. Is it easier or more difficult if one dances on so many arms, instead on two legs like us? Perhaps we should ask them about it. But they may ask us the same question: "Is it easier or more difficult if one dances on two legs, instead on so many arms like us?"

# 113 SEAHORSES AT PLAY

A young boy traveling on a large boat was playing with his marbles when he lost one of them. The marble fell into the sea and was quickly going to the bottom, when a sea horse grabbed it just in time. He took it to his friends and family and now all of them are enjoying this new game. Yay!
