OKTIBBEHA COUNTY, Miss. (WCBI) – The walls of Titan Gym at East Oktibbeha High School are a decoration of sports pride.

For the past eight years Art II students have been working to beautify the gym at East Oktibbeha High, creating a sense of school pride.

Pretending to be members of a design firm, students started their project with the basics.

“Its East Oktibbeha. Its black and blue, no question,” said Brandon Hogan, EOHS student.

“Well see you got to make a sketch of your art and then you have to go back over it. Put it on grill paper,” said Eddie Young, EOHS student.

“The basketball, the baseball, the leaves and the Titans. Yes sir,” said Charlette Jones, EOHS student.

It took about two and a half months to design one of the sports murals.
