I was hired to paint a huge 60 foot mural in Downtown Fort Wayne Indiana. Here’s some process photos for how I did it.
The original wall before painting.
After painting in all the color.
Starting to paint in the line work.
Making some progress.
Scaffolding comes in super handy for the higher parts.
Using a projector helps get the art work to match the original design.
Helps to have awesome assistants like Tori and Josh.
I made a grid over the design and broke it into 5 parts.
I chopped the design into 5 parts and marked 5 positions on the ground for the projector.
Using a projector means painting a lot at night.
Almost done.
Done! (except for touch ups to do during daylight.)
I still like the way it looks at night though.
3:00 a.m.
Final step, varnishing, with my lovely assistant Noah.
Done for realisies.
