Baby’s First Mural!
April 6, 2013
I’ve been absent, but with good reason! We are expecting a little fella late summer, so life has taken on a new urgency if you will. So many projects to tackle before his arrival.
One of which was finally updating my Dutch Island mural from many years ago. (see here to refresh your memory.) Naughty clients decided to remodel, trim down the mural a bit from one side and *gasp* tear a hole in the wall to put in double doors! (it’s okay Meghan and Bill, I still love you!)
Beveled edges are so tricky! Matching paint from 8 years ago, even trickier, but I think I successfully brought their waterfall back to life.
Oh and they had one more addition arrive in those 8 years, Sophie. It wouldn’t be fair to leave her out of the mural…
Here’s a better shot at how she fits into the mix…
Here’s a glimpse at the right side. I added some embellishments to beef up the silhouette since a few feet had been trimmed on that side of the mural. Sorry for the split shots, it’s impossible to be a shot of the full mural (roughly 20 feet wide)
For a better idea of the scale of things, take a look at the original mural.
Happy Spring y’all!
