Tree Goddess Commissioned Interior Mural

I can feel myself evolving as a Muralist with each new project and thus I certainly had a blast creating my most recent mural:

The above was commissioned by a local Portland Oregon patron of the arts who gave me complete creative control of a section of the bedroom in his new home.

It all started with a concept sketch:

Once the concept sketch was approved by the patron I began work on the wall:

I started by using a paint marker to rough out the concept sketch directly on the wall.

And then I started mapping out the color!


And then cleaning it all up with some fine details

All done! 

What am I doing in this photo you ask? Why, I am being a tree lady too! Wasn't it obvious?

Is your bedroom next? Got a nursery or living room that could use some color? How about the chicken coop or the shed out back? Contact me if you are interested in talking about commissioning a mural!

Hope you enjoyed seeing my creative process in the creation of this project.

I have plenty of other things to show you soon, namely this past weekend I finished a custom commissioned body painting portrait session. Photos and details on that will be posted soon.

Much love,

P.S

I will be in SoCal come August, so if you are interested in commissioning a mural or body painting portrait session and you are out that ways, don't hesitate to set something up with me.

July Art Show and tree goddess Mural!

So this happened and was great fun :

I got to paint a mural for the show, which will be up for the month of July:



I painted a tree goddess of sorts and enjoyed the process so much! I did the background with spraypaint, and then went in with black and white acrylic to create the creature.


I also did the smaller wall to the left in similar process, but with my spirally patterning.


Then it came time to hang everything up! Here I am figuring out what to put where.


Putting the final paintings on the wall and making sure everything is straight.


All done!

A couple close ups:

And then it was show time!




This is the other side of the gallery which featured one of my favorite Portland Oregon female artists: Laura Borealisis.

Another photo from the opening:



It was great fun, and a total success and will be up for the month at HomeBass PDX, so if you are in the area stop on in!

Big thanks to my hubby, Danny Ebru, for kindly documenting the mural creation, art hanging and show with these beautiful bright photos.

I will be updating on here soon about my Earth Goddess body art series, I have A LOT of material to share!

So stay tuned :)

With love and light,
