Murals Print E-mail
     Leigh loves to work BIG, and she loves to work outside. She loves working with large brushes and lots of paint.  Leigh's most happy when she's covered in paint and surrounded by drop cloths. She thrives when presented with a challenge, and painting murals can certainly be a challenge.

The Mural Process
      There's a lot of preparation that goes into painting a mural. Based on the size of the surface, Leigh creates a study of the mural. Once she's happy with the preliminary work, Leigh ensures that the actual painting surface is properly prepared. Old paint must be removed, and patching and sanding the surface is imperative before the actual painting begins. The surface is then painted with several layers of primer.
       When the surface is ready to go, Leigh divides the painting surface into quadrants and begins to sketch the design with paint. When she's happy with the setup, she's ready to paint. Depending on the size of the project, it's not uncommon to see Leigh working on a ladder, scissor lift, or scaffolding.

Brighten Your Surroundings
      Murals can enliven any interior, make a personalized statement, and provide a sense of calm. When painted on an exterior surface, murals have a way of bringing communities together and instilling a sense of pride among neighborhoods. This is especially true when people from the community get involved with the actual painting process.

Transforming the Ordinary
     Artist Leigh Pawling has a natural way of transforming an ordinary space into an extraordinary work of art. Regardless of the size or type of surface, she'll create a one-of-a-kind work of art for you. No wall is too big or too small. Give Leigh a call today to discuss your new project.
