Poolside in Costa Rica
Poolside in Costa
Rica
Costa Rica is nestled
between Nicaragua and Panama with coastlines of both the Caribbean Sea and
Pacific Ocean. Costa Rica is known as the
world’s largest coffee producer and for its stunning natural wonders- like the
volcanoes.
I had the pleasure of
painting one of the glorious volcanoes in Costa Rica and giving the scene a
very personalized twist. The homeowner had enjoyed a lovely vacation down in
Costa Rica and wanted a tropical pool with a view of a volcano. The
personalized twist was adding in some of the beloved cats and dogs into the
scene.

Soul Lifting Beach
Soul Lifting Beach
In Southwest Florida, beach scenes are the most frequently requested type of mural. I’ve had the pleasure of painting them inside and outside. Some of the scenes have been tranquil and serene, often just a gentle blue sky over gentle waters or a sunset over a deep teal ocean. Some have been bursting with color and energy. Quite often there will be a request to do something to personalize the scene. Those requests have ranged from the owners’ pets being in the mural, their grandchildren in the mural, a specific number of shells and birds to represent family members, signs on the beach with the number of miles to their other homes, and in the case of a commercial mural their logo turned into a palm tree. This week I had a first though. A large ship’s helm with scripture verses around it as it centers over a beach. It was absolutely delightful to paint such a meaningful mural for the homeowners. Spending time viewing this beach will lift their spirits and lift their soul.
Here are a few other personalized beach scenes:
