Our Design Process
Our story...
Creating a custom mural is a collaboration between the artists and the betrothed. We will take you through the following process to create a mural that is unique to you.
The entire design process can take a while, therefore we suggest contacting us early, preferably at least 3 months before event.

1. You send us photos of inspiration. The photos can be pinterest photos you like, photos from your own life or anything that seems relevant to what you would like your wedding mural to be about. We will also discuss colors and wedding theme overall.
2. We create a mood board to give you an idea of the direction and color theme for your mural.
​​
3. Once the mood board is approved we move onto designing you digital design sketch.

If you have some small revisions or color tweaks we can make those at this point.

When you have approved the design we begin your painting!
Approved Sketch
Final Painting
Painting can​ take up to a month to complete. The mural is painted on a piece of canvas that has been gessoed. We sketch out the design and use acrylic paint. Before you get your mural it will have an isolation coat and a topcoat of satin varnish to protect it.
​
The painting is hung on dowels on the top and bottom to keep the piece flat.
