10 x 18 foot wall

I recently met a new client, Karen, through the platform houzz. She had seen one of my paintings (Spring Bloom, 2020) and wanted to commission me to paint it on her garden wall. This family have put a lot of love and effort into transforming their garden into a beautiful outdoor living space, and it was really great to be involved in that.

The project took 2 days, and was quite physical but a great experience. The mural was painted using masonry paint, and then covered in a clear varnish to help preserve it from the elements. I was worried how it would turn out, but I’m really happy with the end result.

This is the third mural I’ve done. I’m hoping to do another one at a school in Chicago this year, and potentially a fifth one in London. Working outdoors in the fresh air surrounded by nature, feels amazing — it’s nature’s studio.

It’s been wonderful working with Karen. She has a truly creative soul. She works in IT, and upcycles furniture in her spare time. Karen says that now, she keeps popping into the garden just to look at the mural; to stand and watch and soak it in. She even did another wall!
