Youngsters have taken a leaf out of a top artist's book to create a colourful mural of the area in which they live.

Pupils at Eldwick Primary School were inspired by Mexican painter Diego Rivieri's work and copied his use of oranges and greens for their huge painting.

The circular creation, which is framed with paintings of leaves from the trees in Bingley's Prince of Wales Park, includes the town's distinctive Alltel building, the White Horse pub, All Saints parish church, the Five Rise Locks and boats on the canal.

School art co-ordinator Jane Franz said: "We are hoping the Bingley Civic Trust will be interested in using it as a postcard."Pupil Sam Robinson, 11, is pictured working on the mural.
