MANGROVES... .There are several different kinds of mangroves. I was told ( and shown ) the different kinds. The only kind I remembered was red mangroves. As seen growning over the boardwalk in the photo below, red mangroves have a zillion roots growing in every direction.

All those roots would have been difficult to draw and nearly impossible to have students paint on a mural. That was the originial suggestion for my mural. I found it much easier to use the above photo with Tortuga Island in the background as part of the inspiration for the mural. You'll see it when you look at the painting.
