Providence Mission Home Mural Project - Technique, Textures, and Time
I've had an open ended conversation about a mural since November 2016.
In December the family that I was coordinating with had a little tike come along to join the process (a baby was born mid pre-production).
The discussion began again in March 2017. Plans, a collab, and a #sketchwere put into #roughdrafrs on the #drawingtable the last 2 weeks of April.
Painting went throughout all of May. We were able to coordinate one community workday to block-in shapes and colors. For the detailing and rendering n-between part-time work, holidays, and personal time, needing to go out, and coordinating/planning for a conference this June...
The circle of life for this mural has finally completed!
Here are the highlights, textures, techniques, and #colorscheme of this #muralwall for Providence Mission Home. • I'd say this is my best and a good place to start after being away from being a freelance #muralistfor three years. It was such a challenge to tackle a 38'x8.5' wall after being away from it for a while. • I appreciate the international audience that will gaze upon it, I appreciate the one I collaborated with @universe_souls, and I appreciate the family that supported, conversed, and coordinate this project. • hidden signature
