Finished drawing the image in pencil and now working on paint. Finding out that some of the images need more detail now that they are full size so working on fine tuning some of them.

Mural Project

Sprayed the sky color on the wall and started projecting the image outline. I am using my laptop and projecting the Illustrator image through a Toshiba TDP-TW90 projector. This allows much more flexibility and the ability to manipulate the image and hide or enhance sections of the image, adjusting line weight etc. as I work. Dividing up the wall into 10' sections and working on a section at a time. Hope to have the whole image drawn by the end of next week and then on to the painting. Stay tuned !!!

THE 'MAINE JUMP MURAL'

THE 'MAINE JUMP' MURAL PROJECT

THE MAINE JUMP MURAL PROJECT
I have been commissioned to design the interior and paint a mural for 'The Maine Jump' in Bangor, Maine. 'The Maine Jump' is a kid's playspace featuring bounce castles, slides and other play areas, a private function room and food service areas. The mural will be 120' x 10' [ 1200 sq. ft if you prefer] and will feature aspects of life in Maine - scenic locations, landmarks, sport and leisure activities, industry, wildlife, famous Mainers and other aspects of life in Maine. The mural will be rendered in a graphic style using 1930's travel posters as inspiration. Working with jpeg images in Adobe Illustrator, creating outlines which will later be projected onto the wall and painted. Follow the progress of the project on this blog and feel free to comment. Shown here are a couple of the images I am working on.
