Description
No one needs to be told that murals are popular: they are everywhere, embellishing the interiors and exteriors of houses, buildings and offices. Painting Murals will show you how to create your own murals, large or small, not only on walls and ceilings, but also on other surfaces, such as doors, shutters and screens. All the practical aspects of painting murals – materials and equipment, preparing the surface, choosing a subject and style, and how to transfer your design – are covered in the first part of the book. This is followed by eight special projects, illustrated step-by-step with full-color photographs, taken from design to completion. For the keen amateur artist who has little or no technical skill, there are numerous demonstrations and ideas for less ambitious murals, such as flat, decorative themes, a fun project for the nursery and a surreal mural for the bathroom. Other projects cover spatial illusion, a mural for the garden, projects for smaller, more manageable areas, plus a section on paint effects. In addition, at the end of each project you will find many examples of other muralists’ works, providing pages of ideas and inspiration.
For anyone who has yearned to paint a mural in their home – perhaps in the bathroom or in a child’s room – but never quite had the confidence to carry it out, Painting Murals will show you how.
