Leigh's Garden continued......

Well I've gotten two more days work into the mural.....I meant to post pictures after the grass was added almost a week ago however put the room back together before I remembered to take the pictures. Oh well, I've managed to get another day's work in as I was home with my son who has an ear infection. Not good to miss work, but a mom's gotta do what a mom's gotta do. That aside the progress ended up being a nice little surprise for my daughter when she came home today, so I'm happy! So, without any further delay, here's the pictures of the progress......

Leigh's Garden

With my daughter's seventh birthday soon upon us I've decided to start my project/birthday present for her. This year I'm painting her a mural of her own for her space. I promised myself when we finally bought our own home that both children would have their own personalized room so my daughter and I thought long and hard and she decided upon a garden for her room complete with a sunny sky, flowers and butterflies. I was going to wait until later in the year but the recent good weather we've had has inspired me to start a little earlier, plus my daughter's face when she saw me take the paint brush to her walls ignited the urge to get going even more. What better motivation than an excited happy little girl urging you on. So with that I will leave you all with pictures of my first leg of the journey and will be sure to keep you all posted as the mural progresses.......oh and the blue of the closer shot of the sun is the truer colour. My camera seems to be quitting on me sadly. Thanks for looking/reading!

Musical Mural Day 3, completion!

Well the 3rd and final day is now complete. I have now finished the mural and as I type this one little girl is very happy with the results......and by that I mean the little girl who is now the proud owner of her new mural. I absolutely love it when I see the faces of those I paint for when they see the finished product. It's an exciting moment and completely nerve wrecking at the same time as you wait to see that what you've done is to their satisfaction. Today seemed to just fly past and everything fell into place beautifully. So, for your consideration I now show you the final installment for this Musical Mural.......




I look forward to getting the opportunity to work on another mural and only hope it won't be too far off in the future. If you live in the Innisfil and immediate surrounding areas and would like one of your own I would love to hear from you. You can view view my ad here via Marketplace on Facebook HERE. I look forward to showing you more work soon.......thank you for following.

Musical Mural Day 2

Oh what a day! Today I put in an extra hour and a half into the work however it really did pay off. The one main wall is now sealed and the details are being worked into the remaining areas. I have even gotten started on the name which I'm really looking forward to seeing completed as it was one of my favorite to sketch out. The colours are just popping off the wall and it's pulling together nicely. With any luck only one more good day of work will be needed and then it can be enjoyed! Below you'll find pictures of the progress......
