VW Mural Progress

October 4, 2010 //  by Paint It!

Blank canvas

Now the canvas is laid out on my table in my oh so spaceous and well appointed small and rustic studio. You can barely see the sketch I did from the projection, but it’s all there!

Background

I started with the background, which will be a VW Wallpaper repeat design.

Car detail

Once the background was in, I started blocking out some of the car and the "ripped paper" surrounding the car.

Far shot

Here’s a far shot of the mural in progress. This is the only angle I can stand at in my studio and get the entire canvas in the picture frame of my camera.

That’s as far as I got because my daughter is in the process of changing apartments, so I spent a few hours looking at new places with her. Yuck, there are a lot of bad apartments out there for a lot of money. 🙁 We did see one the other day that was great, but the young woman who saw it just before we did, decided she wanted it, so the hunt continues.
