Design
Evolution of a Mural

3 Initial Sketches
The first step is concept designs. For Davis Magnet, I created 3 unique designs and presented them to the school. The school then had their students and staff vote on which design they preferred.

They Picked Design #2
Design #2 was chosen and then I moved the sketch into Illustrator where I digitally drew the lines and began choosing a color palette to compliment the mural. For installation, I used a projector and then was able to cleanly transfer the line art onto the wall before finishing the mural with paint.



An Elementary School had reached out to us requesting to expand their existing mural, which we had revitalized the year before. They wanted to add several more children to the mural that encompassed their lunch room. The first step was to measure the existing art of the children and make sure to take reference photos for the style and color scheme.
I was able to design the new children characters in Illustrator and then use the reference photos I had taken to place the new child characters into the existing mural as overlays to assure correct placement and style matching. Once the design was done, painting of the new characters went smoothly. The new characters added more fun to the scene and made it more dynamic.
