Mural Ideas

As I have mentioned before I am addressing my articles to those of you who have no education in art and are interested in murals for your home or business. My articles' purpose is to help you in choosing the right artist and the right design, as well as to educate you.

When it comes to mural art ideas oftentimes people jump into inquiring for a copy of somebody's existent work that they saw in someone's house or a copy of a well known artwork. This happens because this is a quick way to decide on a design, and one wouldn't have to spend too much time in thinking what he or she wishes for.

However, from my experience people hope for original design, something that fits their tastes and needs. Therefore, when you have a chance to list through an artist's portfolio, it is always good to use an existing image of a mural that you prefer only as reference, while giving the artist an idea of what it is you envision on your wall.

Usually it is the artist who will do the rest of the work: he would do the research for you and would come up with thousands of ideas that you can choose from. It might be that the artist will provide various photos and images or he will design some small sketches for you to help you understand how your wall can be filled up and create a harmonious balance.

An artist expresses himself easily when the customer is listening and is willing to learn and collaborate. Many times ideas are being clarified through a simple conversation. However, because most people are busy and wrapped up in their own worlds, and they don't have time to communicate, it is up to the artist to work everything out.

A good artist will care about completing a project of your dreams. He/she will find ways to work out a good price for you, while looking forward to a successful project. You should remember that the mural will be there forever (unless you are planning to modify it when you replace your curtains or furniture!). Therefore, it has to contain anything you have planned and dreamed about. Just go for it!

Georgeta Fondos Photo I am a professional mural, fiber artist, and college professor. My mural portfolio consists of hand-painted public and residential murals in various styles, most of them located in South Florida. I am versed in both representational (realistic) and abstract art, and I am always looking forward to projects that challenge my thinking in generating original ideas. Most of my murals are painted in naturalistic style, using the trompe l'oeil effects (from French "to trick the eye".) http://www.muralsbygeorgeta.com/ Rate this Article

Most residential murals are created with the purpose to beautify the space but also to give it more depth and definition. Trompe l'oeil is one of the favored techniques by many. This technique has been used for years; you can see some great examples with trompe l'oeil murals in early Roman frescoes.
