Hospital MuralFinal Major Project – By Loren Crosby

The Plan:•To design a Mural for Birmingham

Children’s hospital

•To create illustrations that are

both colourful and uplifting, which

will hopefully cheer up the

children of the hospital.

•To liven up the look of a dull and

dreary hospital ward.

•To show my work off to a wider

audience.

Art Nouveau

“According to the

philosophy of the style,

art should be a way of

life.”

Aya Kato

“I draw the thought that the

universe loves us all truly, and

I wish and feel so.

The forms of my wish from the

bottom of my heart are these

artworks.”

Alphonse Mucha

“The purpose of my work

was never to destroy but

always to create, to

construct bridges, because

we must live in the hope

that humankind will draw together and that the

better we understand

each other the easier this

will become.”

Gismonda – Alphonse Mucha

mural campaign.“ –
