Mural Creation : Under The Sea

Mural Creation: Under the Sea
Life is the Bubbles…Under the Sea! It is a total delight when client’s request under water scenes. They bring so much fun and color to any room, both indoors and outdoors…and restaurants too!

This adorable dolphin and friends grace the walls of a master bath:

Mermaids, Scuba divers, and sea friends greet customers in a restaurant’s outdoor eating area:






An underwater themed child’s room: The room is painted so you have the feeling of being submerged. The bunk-bed has been made to resemble a submarine. Sleeping quarters on the top bunk and a play area is created in the lower section. Room comes complete with a giant octopus that greets you as you climb up to the bed area. The tentacles encompass the bed, walls, and ceiling. Even the furniture and window cornice are painted to blend in to the theme:

Shells make a fabulous motif in a kitchen niche:


Of course, humans go underwater too!

Mural Creation: I Heard It Through The Grape Vine

Mural Creation: I Heard It Through The Grape Vine

Yum... Grapes - everyone’s favorite fruit gives us succulent sweet bursts of flavor on a warm day.  Grapes give us home- made jams and jellies. And perhaps, most importantly grapes give us Wine!  
With all that grapes have to  offer, it’s no surprise that I’m often requested to paint this fruit from the heavens in both private homes and commercial locations. 


A kitchen hood flow receives an adornment of grape vines





This scene gives restaurant patrons a beautiful view while concealing a less than appetizing view to the alley. 


Grapes surround the wine area at Mama Nina's


Vineyard scenes are extremely popular for the Mediterranean homes in South Florida







Of course, other fruits and berries give us jams and wine too!

These berries dance across the window cornice and onto the walls in a guest bathroom

Mural Painting: We The People

Mural Painting: We the People
The most personal thing that can be painted into a mural or on canvas is a person. We’re attracted to human faces. I've had the pleasure of painting both walls and canvases for several clients. And the requests have been as varied in style as there are people
.
Portrait painted for a client who declared herself to be “A Fabulous Cook”:

Both real and fantasy people “underwater”:



Children are always delighted to see themselves painted into their room murals:



Sometimes people are who we fantasize we could be:




Or come from our favorite stories and comics:






Some paintings show us hard at work:







And some are of our own real life heroes:
