The kids’ party area at the Imaginarium got a little brighter.
Local artist Juan Antonio Varajas completed the original work.
It took him 128 hours in the span of a month to finish the mural. He says he didn’t have a lot of colors so he had to mix a few
He mixed 9 different shades of blue and 15 different shades of green.
He says he chose the river and forest background because he wanted to transport the childrens’ imaginations out from Laredo, giving them a change of scenery.
Workers at the Imaginarium say the children enjoy the work.
