I recently finished a mural at a friend's house and luckily took a few pictures along the way! She wanted a tranquil ocean with a palm tree on each side and a few flowers.
It didn't look like much when I first started...
Okay, a little peaceful looking now...
I love this, the floating coconut stage. It made me laugh. (Notice how my client wanted fluffy looking clouds, so I changed them for her.)
We labeled these "the aliens". Unfortunately I had to leave it like this overnight and my client woke up during the night thinking aliens had landed!
What a difference a few leaves make!
Here's the left side...
and now the right side...
and ta da! It's finished!
