In Dream of a Deer, Michael Albano brings to life the magic and innocence of childhood. This mural, found in the playground of the children's home Batang Pinangga, was inspired by a special event: a movie night when all the children enjoyed the film Bambi together. The image of the young baby deer, full of wonder and playfulness, left a deep impression. Inspired by their enthusiasm, Michael decided to paint a deer as a lasting reminder of this warm moment of togetherness.
Using soft, flowing brushstrokes and warm earth tones, he depicted the deer in a playful, dreamy way. The large, curious eyes radiate kindness, while the surrounding nature provides peace and security. The mural invites children to let their imagination run wild - a deer that might just come to life in their dreams.
This painting is more than decoration; it is a piece of wonder, a nod to children's imagination and a loving reminder of the power of stories. Perfect for a child's room, where it not only brings atmosphere, but also conveys the message of hope, love and innocence.
