the boys room mural


I have painted murals for years in the Sierra Nevada of California and in Rhode Island.  I have always had a detailed realistic style for painting.  I decided that the boys room should be simple and left to the imagination, plus faster to paint with little time.  Soft color with silhouettes were perfect.  I painted with small brushes right over the top of the gypsum plaster.  We started with a tree and a owl and will add on later as the furniture finds it's place.  I purchased the paint from a Santa Fe, NM based company, 'Bio Shield'.  It is called Kinder paint and has no VOCs (volatile organic compounds), also this paint was made to be washed off easily.
