Imaginary world
Children’s bedroom mural
Client: Private Client
The brief
The bedroom was in an old, English cottage, and would serve as a bedroom for the visiting grandchildren. The grandchildren were of varying ages and interests, some of which were keen on: fairies, dinosaurs and castles. We decided to create a world which incorporated lots of different elements, in a colour scheme that would be relaxing and easy to live with. A fun final touch was painting in the grandchildren as characters within the mural.
Design Development
Using Adobe Photoshop and hand painted elements, I created a mock up of the mural.
The next stage is the painting of the design, laying down the background layer.
This design used a number of different techniques, from large brushes (including a sweeping brush!) to taping up sections. If you’d like to see more of the process, there are videos on Martha’s instagram.
Have a wall in mind?
I design and hand-paint custom murals for homes, businesses, schools and creative spaces throughout New York City and beyond. Get in touch to tell me about your space and I'll help you explore what's possible.
