William Edwards School and Sports College 'Sporting Greats' mural. Summer 2006
I was contacted by the school to produce an external wall mural which would run along side there new astroturf football pitch. The theme was to be 'Sporting Greats'. I subjected my design to the school and then proceeded.
I began by masking and then painting the choosen area with a white base coat, filling any holes befor hand. The whole mural was painted using masonary paints, making the hole area weather resistant. when all the images had been painted i gave the whole mural two coats of anti-graffitti paint.
Children on the wall Summer 2006
I was recently commissioned to paint children on the wall of a mothers bedroom.
Firstly i decorated the bedroom using two colours. Two walls in a pink, and two in purple. She explained that she wanted a modern design of a pop art nature.
With this in mind a took photo's of the children, and using software on my computer i changed the format of the photo which changed the images to a'block colour form'. It was then that i introduced the colours i had used in the bedroom into the photograph, meaning the childrens photo was now made up of pink and purple. I then airbrushed the image onto the wall.
